Coax connectors - worth spending extra?

My Oritron 600 only has coax output for DD/DTS. Does it make any difference having a better connector? If so, which one do you suggest?
Before I set it up, I bought an optical lead but now I`m just using a standard phono lead, and it appears to work OK (although I haven`t got any DTS discs to try!).
Matt.

Are you using a phono lead to connect the coaxial output to your processor? Phono leads cannot carry all the required information which a standard coaxial cable can which obviously means you wont be getting the full effect of DD.
You can pick up a reasonable Coax Cable for about £7 from the likes of Miller bros.
