My guess is that Toslink gives more noise related jitter due to the
conversion between optical to electrical, but that this jitter is less
correlated to the signal than for the coax interface. But this is pure
speculation based on my listening results. It would be nice if someone
would investigate the jitter properties of the various interfaces.
