The point
being the original poster asked what he should use and the answer is
Coax NOT Optical because the Coax route (if you follow my advice
about using free phono leeds that come with all hi-fi seperates) IS
cheaper than any Optical cable on the market.

Thats NOT *the* answer, its *AN* answer.

Exactly. He answered a question that wasn't asked and is now whining like a
bairn as he tries to puke his dumb error back up after it was shoved down
his throat. ;-)

No actually I was providing another alternative to Ian's advice that
the poster should buy an optical cable. Ian stated Optical is cheaper,
I pointed out that that is not the case.

I don't think trying to save an unsuspecting newbie from spending
unnecessary money on an optical cable, or worse an overpriced 'digital
coax'.

I would be very suprised if anyone that owns a home cinema system
didn't have at least one 'free' phono pair lying around.
