| Re: DVD player optical output failure? Or bad cable?
Optical cables are fragile. Anytime we can avoid them in an installation we use coax. There is not much of a case to be made for optical from a performance standpoint and we have had many fail over the years. I hate to say it, but some of the most durable ones require the use of the M & C words. MC gets a bad rap for their pricing and hype, but their optical cables have been much more reliable than most, IME.
