Ikabob - please stop reading! :-) There is no such cord. In MOST peoples systems digital coax is the best connection. In a few people's systems - mostly those that have a ground loop caused by using shielded Cat6 cable to wire their SB device to their Router - using optical connection solves the hum problem. Please just just use coax unless you have a hum problem. -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...
