    Audible Difference Between Optical And Analog Cables?

    I belive Dynamic range is the difference between noise and highest sound, what I mean with relative dynamics is about the loudest and weakest pointed in the recorded signal. If I'm wrong please correct me again. :cool:

    Audible Difference Between Optical And Analog Cables?

    If it were vinyl I'll second that, vinyl low frequencies are deeper than CDs and so is the dynamic range, but you have to play it in pretty expensive equipment to notice difference. In his case records are digital so is not about the type of connection is about digital to analog conversion.

    Audible Difference Between Optical And Analog Cables?

    I guess you have to investigate which device has the better DAC chip (probably both use the same), if your receiver has better DACs then go digital, otherwise then analog is the way to go.
