    Best deal for a digital optical cable?

    I also recommend parts express. There Dayton Line of cables are excellent and if you need speaker wire grab some sound king 12G (100'), Audioholics did a speaker faceoff and this speaker wire scored extremely high, plus there are other decent products available at parts express.

Obviously if you are using a surge suppressor that has a built in ground and if you have grounded your receiver or amp to a cold water pipe, etc. this may explain your problem.
