Hi Guys,

Does any one out there have any ideas on where I can get a cheap long (around 30 ft.) Digital Coax Cable? I have a tempoarary set-up, and don't want to spend too much on it. I already checked out Better Cables and they only list their new Silver Serpent for $171 (ouch) .

Like I mentioned, this is a temporary set up, and I don't want to pay a lot for this mufler - er -cable.

Don, any good-quality coax w/RCA ends will work. The good thing about digital is that it is math, not history. Either the numbers work or they don't. Signal 'quality' isn't relative, like it is with analog. If the receiving component gets the numbers at the input, the next stage behaves the same. If the cable quality isn't up to the job, you won't have a useable signal at all.

Try avcable.com. Get a 75 ohm standard video cable with Canare RCA connectors. Shouldn't break the bank, but is very high quality.
