Caiman - Toslink or SPDIF + burn-in time

Oh wait a min...

Is it toslink only out of the sky rubbish box?

As far as I can see, I'll do a Google...

HDMI or Optical only - back to the toslink option I fear, but thanks anyway Mike.

It's shit anyway! :ner: :lolsign:

£56.86 a month and all "we" (Mrs Alex!) ever watch is Corrie and 'stenders... :doh:

Yes I did mean Mike Homar's cable

...and damn fine it is sounding too... more to follow on the other thread

I've tested 2 Toslinks and 1 Coax in my system.

Stan's Toslink definitely sounds better than the £2 Toslink that I got from a Hifi show. But, my Digital Coax just edges it in terms of overall cohesiveness.

I'm using DH Labs Silversonic D75.
Not bad...not bad at all.

I've been using the 5m version of this optical lead http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=35921 from Sky+ box to Beresford TC7510 for a while with very good results.

i always find im much less aware in changes of sound quality when im using my eyes
the digi box into 7520 made a good bit of difference but i wouldnt worry to much about the quality of cable if i were you.... unless of course you intend to listen to the radio via sky.... in which case ignor me
