what Christine said about optical. I like the idea of electrical
isolation between the PC and the stereo, and if you're
reclocking at the receiving end, you don't have to worry
about jitter.Another great thing about optical -- you can use really **long**
runs of it. I've had no problems at all with 50-foot Hosa
optical cables. Your Mileage Might Vary, I suppose, depending
on the details of the S/PDIF (or ADAT -- I've used both)
transmitter and receiver, but I have yet to have any
problems that could be attributed to using long optical cable runs.Optical is light (no pun intended) and flexible, too.
