Me, trying to be smart: I'll order an optical audio cable to connect my audio interface to my AV receiver so I can transmit my music losslessly to the speakers in my room instead of relying on flaky Airplay or Bluetooth.

So I'm returning the optical cable and ordering old school analog cables and adapters because they fucking work.
Digital technology was a mistake.
