I was wondering if digital cables can be used as interconnects and if anyone does this? Is there a sonic compromise in doing so or are the "digital" cables simply 1/2 of a pair of interconnects? Thanks
Digital cables are made with a different impedance and so are optimized for dighital pulse transmission. But they will work for audio, perhaps not optimally. You won't hurt anything. Try it.
No, But they can be used for component video. You'll need three. Having an old set of High Quality (slim pickin's) comp video cables can make three digital cables. Good to use for cable box or XM reciever.
