May 8, 2002 5:33 PM | | Who prefers Digital Coax or Optical and why?
Personally I like Digital Coax, seems more professional and doesn't have the alignment problems that optical can have, but sonically I really have trouble telling the difference. Interested on your thoughts |

May 9, 2002 4:54 AM | | You answered the reason for using Coax "seems more professional and doesn't have the alignment problems that optical can have...". I would also add flexibility to that list also :) |

Even at studio application with full resolution of 196kh/24 at 6 channel, it will still be well below what coax and fiber optics cables are capable of :) |
