I have never recommended anyone "go wireless" for sound quality reasons. What I have said is that people should use whatever works/sounds best for them. I have never recommended anyone "go TOSLINK" - what I have said (many, many times) is that in some systems it works better than coax and in others it doesn't so it is important to try both. -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...
