optical or coaxial audio cable?


My Sony DVD player has both optical and coaxial digital outputs. Which do you think will give me the better sound?

You can get a really nice glass ( don't use plastic) fibre optical cable from wireworld for around $100.00. this is not much of an investment. Also, get yourself a decent coax and plug them both in. You should be able to switch from one to the other and you can decide for yourself. I have the Acoustic Zen coax and I like it. I understand the Nordost is quite good, too. You can sell any of these on Audiogon for not much of a loss, later.
Sean, I think the referance was to degredation of optical whenever it is disturbed. Buried optical lines remain untouched and unaffected.
