Would one of you home cinema buffs be able to tell me what sort of cable I need to connect my DVD player to a home cinema amp. 
 
Both units are JVC and have both the optical and 'phono' type coaxial connections on the back.  The amp/controller can be configured to accept either or, as far as I know my sky box doesn't support this (I know sky are trialing some DD at the moment, but my box only has stereo out 'phono' style sockets that I presume wont have the correct encoded bits), it's the pace unit.  So what would be my best option to use for the DVD player - optical or coax, and where night one get the correct cable/s -would I be correct in assuming that an ordinary unshielded wired one will be 'bad'.
 
Thanks,
 
Steve
