fiber optic/toslink cable recommendation


hi all, i really dont know anything about these types of cables. i have quite high end power cables, interconnects and speaker wires, but i am running my movies from an external hard drive into my cal audio cl-2500 processor with a cheap monoprice fiber optic/toslink cable.

i see some glass/quarts fiber optic/toslink cables but i dont know what to get. i know that i cant always just go buy the price of a cable.

any recommendations for a cable?

thanks

Lifatec glass fiber cables are also recommended on this site regularly. The one I bought has a flexible stainless steel jacket foot protection, and I'm quite happy with it.
Length is not as important a criteria as number and severity of bends in the glass cable. If you have 3 or 4 90 degree turns that have to be sharp because of tight space requirements, that will be a more limiting factor. Try to limit this.
