Default Is digital coaxial cable the same as standard video RCA cable?

Just for curiosity, I used a standard RCA video cable and plugged it

into
the digial coaxial jacks of my DVD player and Yamaha reciever. I get

very
good audio from the connection. Is digital coaxial just another fancy

name
for RCA? Does using a more expensive digital audio coaxial cable really
improve the sound over and RCA cable?


No.


I've personally used composite video cables for digital coax cable. Who
doesn't have a junk drawer full of obsolete composite video cables? ;-)
