Digital cables, do’s & don’t.....

Waste of bandwidth
I’m new to these and am wondering if the optical can be pulled/reconnected whilst carrying a signal? I presume you can’t with rca coax? Then the coax on my Mojo is TRS: can use this live as if it was a headphone connection?
Thanks
 
There is no harm in (dis)connecting any kind of digital link while active. Analogue connections, especially RCA, are prone to causing loud pops if hot-plugged, so that's best avoided.

I do it quite often - usually by mistake :D

Never noticed any ill effects whatsoever with either type.
(optical sockets can be notoriously wobbly either way...)
