This 1m phono-to-phono cable is for connecting a DVD player´s coaxial bitstream output to a DTS/Dolby Digital decoder. The thick 75ohms coaxial cable is double insulated. Although digital interfaces are resilient to external influences, they tend to radiate a lot of noise that can cause trouble with analogue kit - double insulation helps prevent this.
We found that the PGD481 certainly delivers the goods when used as a coaxial digital cable - Gladiator lost none of its impact or clarity. Good value for money.
