So it looks like I'll be shopping for some digital audio cables.

just remember, don't fall into the trap of paying and arm and a leg for a "digital" cable, vice an "analog" cable. they're the same thing with different packaging, and they pass current the same way (can't get around this on DVI and HDMI though, there's not two incarnations to choose from)

Who's the more foolish, the fool or the fool who follows him?
