Recommendations on Toslink cable

Hi, I am planning to buy a toslink cable, the amount I am ready to spend is under $80. If you've had experiences with this kind of cables, I would very much appreciate your suggestions. I am planning to use it between Slim Device Squeezebox2 and Benchmark DAC1. Thanks in advance!

Try the glass toslink from captnstarstripe who advertizes here and on ebay. I use one of these and it's terrific. About $30 for a one meter as I recall.

If you check the archives, I think you'll find many of us recommend the VDH Opticoupler.

I second Elgordo. I have 2 of them in my HT system. It was almost like I turned up the volume. Better clarity that the junk I was using. especially in the center channel

I suggest you avoid Toslink if at all possible. Worst possible interface. If you must PS Audio makes a high quality glass cable.
