[QUOTE="croak, post: 465794, member: 361"] It's the transmitters and receivers not the optical cable that phwatts is mostly commenting on. "Then, there's Toslink. It's got a bad rap because in 99% of designs they use a cheap LED for the driver, usually some $1 Toshiba TORX product (hence the name Toslink, for Toshiba link) or a similar copy. These things use a normal LED and as such the jitter and rise/fall times are atrocious." [/QUOTE]
