just drop by any electrical shops like SenQ, harvey norman or shops at Jln Pasar, or even hypermarket, you'll find one easily

no point go for those super expensive branded one, especially monster brand, which are overpriced items, and full of bull crap.

Just drop by jalan pasar buy a cheap cheap no brand one, and it will work just fine. I'm using one bought from Jln Pasar 3, 4 years back, and has been using it since then until now, no problem at all, I can get full digital audios like DTS and DD, and no distortion.

trust me, you won't feel a different in a RM100 optical cable and a RM20 optical cable.

bhaskar, most of us are using the cheap RM25 optical cable

and I believe non of us has experience any problem with the DTS and DD5.1

heck, my friend even is using the el-cheapo RM25 cable for his Blu-Ray player and his RM8k AV receiver, all HD Audio like DTS-HD, Dolby HD, 7.1 all no problem at all. The bass still can blow his roof away

His LCD TV = RM10k
His 7.1 speakers = RM8k
His HD AV receiver = RM8k
His Interconnects = RM1k
His Blu-Ray player = RM5k
His optical cable = RM25

If you're still not convince of the cheap cheap RM25 cable, and has extra $$$ to burn... by all means, go buy the RM100++ branded one if that can gives you a peace of mind.
