just ordered a jb3 and was wondering what cable works well w/ the jb3 and doesn't require any modding to the jb3 to get it to fit snug.
thanks,
justin

any cable, just get the 1/8" optical adapter. shorter the better. if you want a really nice one
www.bettercables.com
makes a really nice one for about 60 bucks. otherwise your standard monster cable or whatever will work.

I bought the right angle adapter from here:

.
they fit perfectly and no need to modify.

I use a monster optical cable and a radio shack mini adaptor and it works fine. No mod needed.
