I just purchased a 5.1 system: DENON 2803 and Boston Acoustics CR series with a PV700 12" sub. The guy in Tweeter loaded me up with very expensive Monster cable brand coax cable for the sub and an optical line for DVD to Receiver. Here are my questions:
1. Do I need the expensive Monster brand coax or will HOME DEPOT brand do just fine for the sub?
2. Receiver to DVD connection: which is better, a digital coax line or an optical line, or are they indicernable?
3. They also told me I needed a "line conditioner" to keep the signal clean. Basically this is a surge protector that is supposed to reduce noise from the power. Is this really necessary? Will is make a huge difference if I am not an audiophile?
Thanks,
Anton
