Maddog 8-Channel Sound Card Review @ Tweaknews

Optical in and out has become standard on most high end sound cards to date (even back in 2001) though finding speakers that will accept optical audio is not the easiest task.
"The "Digital cable" included is a fiber optic cable, which will allow an extremely large bandwidth between the soundcard and audio device."
Jep, extremely large, and don't forget clean, crisp, and clear.
