Many big brands used optical cables, like Logitech and Razer. However, optical cables are being less and less used for transmitting video data, being replaced largely by HDMI cables.
Well, they have a really wide variety of different options available. This means that you have a wide variety of different lengths of coax cable to buy. This means that you can get any cable length you want pretty easily without having to worry about having excess on the cable, as they make it in a ton of different lengths. As with most coax cables, this one has aluminium shielding. As you might have expected, this is designed to shield your cable from damage. You can pick this one up in a variety on lengths between 4m up to m, so you can get whatever size you want depending on your needs.
This coaxial cable is quad shielded. What exactly does this mean? Well, essentially this just means that the cable has four layers of shielding, hence the quad aspect.
Typically, a cable might only have dual shielding. However, some people do still prefer to have piece of mind, which is why quad shielded cables are popular. So, this is another positive that this coax cable has too. Is gold plated actually that much better? Well, not really in my opinion. The only thing that gold plating will do is protect you against corrosion, which is unlikely with coaxial cables anyway. Splatter Pak likes this.
The only difference between a cable used for analog signal and a cable used for digital signal is that the digital cables usually are made out of coax instead of side-by-side conductors, have better shielding, and are made out of better materials. I prefer to use the digital coaxial cables just for the reasons above. Better cable means better signal. Again, doesn't matter which you use, just one is made better than the other.
This be the reason all of my more important cables are coax, like the beefy cable going between my pre and power amps and the one going from the tape out to my mixer. Also the reason guitar cables and pro audio cables are coax. Messages: 46, Location: LoTL. Pro audio cables, at least with regard to analog audio interconnects and also AES-EBU digital , are virtually always shielded twisted pair to facilitate the balanced connections.
Messages: 38 Location: Peoria, AZ. I know this is an ancient discussion but I have never been able to use a regular audio RCA type interconnect and guest any sound out if my Digital RCA output. I just the cable marked digital audio and it works perfect every time.
Keep in mind that a have a very large bin full of audio interconnect cables as well. I have also fabbed my own custom length cables for car audio competition systems using very high quality microphone cable and nice heavy duty gold RCA ends.
I keep on reading how there is no difference, but yet i can only get sound using a specific cable. I have also tried all yellow, red, blue, green and every other cable made and haven't ever heard any found so hiw many of you have actually used a regular cable and had it work?
Or are you all just assuming this is possible? Also if you do hear anything is it registering as a surround sound compliant source. Is your receiver decoding it as 5.
Also what about the quality of the signal, is it still getting 96bit sound with sample rate frequencies above or equal to CD quality ? I really find this are to believe since I've been trying this for at least 15 years and never had it work! I just tried about 20 regular cables on 5 different combinations of receivers and DVD players and nothing worked!

I've used all sorts of "audio" interconnects red, white, yellow, etc They have never been longer than six feet though. Dwayne Heath likes this. Messages: 1, Sounds like the common factor is your TV. What model is it?
Without a doubt, digital coaxial cables are more advanced when compared to RCA and are great for connecting modern devices. This is because digital coax cables are better shielded and have a guaranteed impedance of 75 ohms.
They are also made of better core materials. This will certainly make a difference for professional use, however, for regular home use, we have found that you should be fine with any cable with RCA plugs really.
On the other hand, you could use a combination of cables. For example, make all your important cables digital coaxial like the large cable going between your pre and power amps or the one going from the tape out to my mixer. If you are a professional, you may want to stick with pro audio digital coax cables.
If you want an affordable, easy to install, heavily shielded, and high capacity cable, then digital coaxial cables best suits you. Coaxial cables are highly susceptible to electromagnetic interference EMI and radio frequency interference RFI , which is the leading cause of the humming effect. Price: RCA cables are common and cheap. You can find them in almost any home audio store for very affordable prices.
Both will do the job, unless you have issues with interference, you may want to go with the digital coax. If you need more reasons to choose digital coaxial cables or RCA cables, you can consider these features:.
Digital coaxial cables are differentiated by their two connector standards. Here are the two most common:. On these cables, the connection is typically made with an RCA connector. These cables are not very common, but they are high-quality and transmit ohm digital signals. They are terminated with 3-pin XLR connectors. If needs be, you can always get a composite to component RCA converter to convert between these two types of cables. The answer to this question is a resounding, yes.
