January 24, 2008: I have recently started taking A courses. This is a required book for the course. I have just started reading the book and am on pages 8 and 9 of chapter 1. As outlined in the book the S/PDIF connector is stated as being audio.. When in fact, the coaxial plug is actually yellow. A yellow coaxial connector is represented as being a VIDEO connection. this is also shown in one of the authors videos. If something this basic is overlooked how can one take the rest of the book to factual and useful information?
