My home theater setup currently consists of a Panasonic A110 dvd player, a Denon AVR3200 receiver, and a Toshiba 55" tv. All my speakers are Paradigms. The fronts are the Mini Monitors, the center is the CC300?, and the surrounds are the Titans. I also have a 100 watt powered Paradigm sub.
My questions are as follows:
Coaxial or Optical digital out to the Denon? I am currently using coaxial cable. SVideo is being used from the Denon to the Toshiba.
Can anyone recommend a good coaxial cable for the sub? Also, based on my setup, what is a good setting for the LFE? I want the sub to really pound.
By the way the room size is 15 x 20.
Thanks in advance for all of your responses.

Due to the fact that you are already using a digital coax cable and my own personal opinion I would stay with the coax. It is cheaper, more durable, and sounds exactly the same (just my opinion).
As for the coax cable to the sub I would use the same type of cable you are using for the digital connection between the reciever and the dvd player. Just a simple 75ohm Gold Plated RCA cable would be perfect. Does everything that sub-cables that cost 4 times as much will do (again just my opinion).
Not familiar with your reciever so I can't really help with the LFE.

Anyone out there familiar with the Denon AVR3200 and it's setup? Got any suggestions for the speaker levels and the LFE setting?
Thanks.
