100% serious, and I believe it is you that needs to read up on both electricity and light.

Digital Coaxial = electricity = analog
Digital Optical = light = analog
HDMI = data = digital

The signal it is usually passing is a digital signal (CD, DVD, etc.) but it converts it to an analog form to pass it. I did not contradict myself with my own post, because "Digital Coaxial" is the name of the cable.

If you are getting clear sound from a $1 cable, then there will be no improvement whatsoever in a $100 Monster cable.
That is correct, when referring to a digital cable like Firewire, DVI and HDMI.
It is NOT correct when referring to Digital Optical or Digital Coaxial cables, sorry.
