2 quick questions! sub problem and ps3!

Looking for an optical cable to connect my ps3 to my amp any recommedations i looked at the reviews but wondering what to spend any views on the qed qunex OT as ive seen that half price £17.50.

Also ive been getting a rumbling from my sub ive checked all the connections which seem fine but seems when its been on standing for a while ill get a kind of deep spluttering sound coming from it any help? I will contact REL but was wondering if anyone knew what it could be? Thanks

Have you tried plugging the sub into a completely separate wall socket than your Denon receiver and if possible the rest of your system?

If it doesn't then it sounds like a problem with the receiver or the cable, get in touch with Denon they will be able to advise you better but watch they don't place the blame on REL straight away.

No it only happens when the receiver is actually turned. Dont think Denon will do much unfortunately its way out of warranty ill probably have to put up with it as it doesnt happen to much and wait until i get my new amp. Thanks for your help.
