Well, there is optical and optical. Toslink (AKA Trashlink) is pretty bad. AT&T is an entirely different matter. It can be better that coax. Then there is Theta's Single Mode (AKA LaserLinque) which blows everything else away. Unfortunately it is only available on Theta equipment and is a $2000 option. Someday I'll find out were they get it and add it to my Theta transport and DAC. Theta did not invent it. It is also an AT&T invention.
Optical Vs. Coaxial Digital - Which Interconnect?
I have both connections to my preamp and have read different things about both types. I recently began improving my interconnects and speaker cables and there was some obvious improvement in the sound.
Anybody have any thoughts on coax vs. Optical digital connection to dac/preamp or any web links to articles?
