Inexpensive alternative to mass-market optilink junk cables

Can't find any strength with this optilink cable.

Average quality cable. Much superior than the cheap RCA, GE, Monster, RadioShack, AR or whatever crap you found at your local mass market electronic stores. But then again, use digital-coax by all means if you are a serious music listener.

Currently using this cable for both my CD & CD Recorder. Excellent improvement over traditional analog RCA cables. Solid construction and attractive. Very crisp sound. Currenly replacing all interconnects with Audioquest.

This cable like most Audioquest cable is great sounding for the money. They have a wide range of prices on all of their cables, but all of there cables perform exceptionally for the money that one has to spend.

(I heard at from the guys at Auidoport) That it is easy to break becuase for the most part the conductor in the cable is a piece of glass and should be treated as such.

This cable is great and just from the look of it you can tell it is a good cable, but It's main purpose in my system it is used as a digital out for DTS and Dolby Digital in my DVD player. my system is very revealing because I have Magnapan MMGs, Monitor silver 10 center, B&W DM 303, and a B&W ASW 500 Sub. This type of cable somtimes can make your home theater equipment finicky. Because If you want to use a co-ax digital out from your DVD player sometimes on some equipment it doesn't sound as crisp or defined on your system. Because of this instead of using the Audioquest VSD-1 (wich can be used as a dgital co-ax). Even Audioquest themselves says that you have to test the difference between co-ax and digital connections in your system. but I have to say that this cable sounded way better on my DVD of AKIRA than the VSD-1 and while the This cable is better for my system it may not be better for yours compared to a co-ax cable. So go to your local Audioquest retailer and be shure to borrow cable before you buy it.
