Would sure like to hear his rationale for pushing a $60.00 pair of cables. Me thinks he gets a nice commission on overpriced wire and was more than willing to baffle you with BS, rather than dazzle with a brilliant fact or two???
How long are the cables needed?

PS One thought... if you use a fiber optic linking system, it will give better bandwidth performance. Standard coaxial cables are fine for limited bandwidth of Audio only.
PSS Here's what Crutchfield has to say:
Q: "What do I connect to the mobile DVD player/receiver's optical or coaxial (RCA) digital output"?
A: "The optical and/or coaxial digital outputs on a DVD player's back panel are for sending various types of digital audio bitstream to compatible components. If you're playing a DVD movie, the multichannel audio (Dolby Digital or DTS®) is sent to the decoder in a surround processor, which separates it into six channels of audio (front right and left, center, rear right and left, and subwoofer).
Although coaxial connections usually have standard RCA-type connectors, the cable itself is specially designed to handle the much wider frequency bandwidth of digital signals. With optical connections, the signal is transmitted as pulses of light through a fiber-optic cable."

Depends on your video player and monitors. If they are digital, then they probably use fiber optic cables. If older stle analog, then std RCA's should work.
