This is the The Official (and only) Optical vs. Coaxial Thread, right?

The only thing you change is the cable. You use the same equipment. Same brand DVD player, same reciever, same speakers. Give a listen. Change cables. Give another listen. Compare/contrast.
If you'd like, you can change equipment - but don't cross your expirements. If you change eqpt. you need to listen/compare with both cables, again.

And Taxi, while I agree with the spirit of your analogy, I would say spending tons of loot on cables at the expense of better eqpt. is like spending the farm on Mushkin memory for a x286. (yet another debate - Mushkin vs. generic DRAM)
