An 88 round from the movie "Saving Private Ryan" took out the optic cable...DOH! New cable problem solved. Have to turn that volume down.



Hmmm.. did the slug actually pass THROUGH the TOSlink cable? If not, then you've harshly bent the cable to break it. The amount of power it would take for a red LED (which is what blinks through the fibreoptic cable) to burn through the cable would leave you with a radiation burn and a charred mark on your wall. Have you been hooking up your receiver to high-tension lines again?!?
