Does that refer to speakers too? If so, i gotta give away my paradigms and pay a bazillion dollars for a BOSE system! I mean, it costs like a million times as much as my old ones, they GOT to be at least a THOUSAND TIMES BETTER!!! http://talk.dvdtalk.com/ubb/tongue.gif (My speakers are not worth a millionth of the price of a bose system. Im exaggerating, so dont think i got like speakers worth its weight in sh*t) http://talk.dvdtalk.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

Sorry Bose Pro... I had to say it...

Because of the EVIL that is sony http://talk.dvdtalk.com/ubb/mad.gif

Toslink is a sony trademark...

TOSlink is a Toshiba Brand Name. (TOShiba LINK)

Sony's version of the Toslink (Optical connection) is SPDIF (Sony Philips Digital Something Something)

Actually, i hear that OPTICAL is cheaper than Coaxial... Not sure though

I stand corrected! I thought sony did it, but I blame them for everything I don't like http://talk.dvdtalk.com/ubb/wink.gif
