ok so i bought a new speaker system and i want to connect my ps3 to it. the ps3 and the speaker system both have the digital optical inputs/outputs or w.e right. So i see on monoprice they sell these optical toslink cables and i was just wondering if they connect into the digital optical ports. thanks =)
generally you should do some research to one degree or another before asking a question http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_optical http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TOSLINK the above SHOULD help
They are the same thing bro, but if your receiver has HDMI switching then I'd suggest using that instead. Much more expensive cable though, but it's losless audio.
