HDMI = high def video+digital audio built into one.

Use HDMI if you wanna use less cables.

By digital audio i can imagine you mean optical audio cables. Which would mean you need a separate cable for both video and audio, and since hdmi is used for the video anyway, might as well use the hdmi.

now if you're trying to use a receiver without hdmi, then you need to use optical.

[YoungPanthers89]

Yeah I meant optical :/ thanks

[Chimera]

I agree with the HDMI crowd.

I spend more time troubleshooting my sound than enjoying it with optical. Maybe I should just upgrade my receiver?

[mmmbeans]

optical looks cooler.

but pretty much the same thing.

Ask J2, A/V is how he makes a living

it is the same signal, just different methods to achieve the same thing...
