optical cables all created equal?

Hello there! I'm looking for something to replace my Blue Jeans Cable POF 15Ft cable that connects my computer to my Compass because I notice that the sound is not very good.

This is a quote directly taken from BJC website that confirms differences in optical cables: Quote:

While POF is in general rather lossy stuff compared to glass optical fiber, we prefer it for optical digital audio use because it's much more physically durable and because its aperture matches the spec for optical digital audio use, unlike glass fiber which is too small and must be used in bundles.


Digital Audio Cables at Blue Jeans Cable

Anyhow, can someone recommend me a good way to output digital audio to my Compass? I have a bit perfect capable codec and a good coaxial cable, but I pick up interference from the computer when using coaxial.
