<font color='#000000'>I've read all the articles regarding cable voodoo at audioholics, so I think I know what I should and shouldn't be paying attention to. *

So I need a digital audio coax cable. *
The &quot;Cable Budget Guidlines (http://www.audioholics.com/techtips/buyingguides/interconnects/cable_budget.php)&quot; article was particularly informative.

So my question is about the Dayton Audio brand from partsexpress.com. *The prices of their equipment is so ludicrously low I'm not sure if it's a good buy or not. *

$7.70 for a 3' digital audio coax, whereas any well-marketed company charges $40 for the same thing. *That difference seems almost too good to be true. *Is it?</font>

<font color='#000000'>I recently bought the Partsexpress brand of S-Video cable (one price level below the Dayton at $7.25 per 6-ft cable vs. $12.70) and they appear to be of good quality. &nbsp;I'm very pleased.</font>

<font color='#0000FF'>Parts express does volume trading and some of their items are very competetively priced. You may not get the fancy names or gold plating but basic quality you will get.</font>
