    Absolutely Floored by Audioquest "Forest" Toslink Cable

    Just picked up this cable excepting an almost negligible change over a cheap belkin cable.  But the difference in the over all speed and clarity of my setup caused me to make this thread.   Everything sounds more realistic and natural.  In comparison the old cable felt as though the dynamics...
