    With a digital cable (the electrical kind) you don’t hear the difference. Either the connection is good enough to get the data stream error free, or it will be dropping in and out and you’d need to clean the contacts or get a new cable.

      Depends on cable type and speed. Sometimes it will limit maximum bandwidth available, but yeah if there’s enough noise it will simply kill the connection

      Technically you’re still hearing the difference. If it makes contact, you’re hearing the music, if it doesn’t make contact, you’re not hearing the music.
