<font color='#000000'>Are the 6/8 channel direct outputs on a DVD player just as good as using a toslink or optical cable?</font>

<font color='#000000'>Unless of course you're using the 6/8 ch inputs for a DVD-A/SACD player. &nbsp;Very few recievers have a digital input (ie firewire) capable of that. &nbsp;In that instance you have no option.</font>
