Cable question

I know this has been asked before and I've read though some threads, although they seemed to be fairly old. So here goes.

Is there an actual difference...and I mean an AUDIBLE difference...between toslink and coax from a CD player to DAC?

Thanks in advance.

PS...I really AM a robot, but I do what I have to do...

I can't swear I hear a difference. But I also can't swear I don't. But it seems to be preferred so, for a pretty small investment, I'm good with it. My system just sounds really great. Next is messing with room correction.
