With a digital cable (the electrical kind) you don't hear the difference. Either the connection is good enough to get the data stream error free, or it will be dropping in and out and you'd need to clean the contacts or get a new cable.
Technically you're still hearing the difference. If it makes contact, you're hearing the music, if it doesn't make contact, you're not hearing the music.
Yeah but if a normal cable stops the music entirely you clean the contacts or buy a new one and then suddenly it's back to a perfect reproduction.
Depends on cable type and speed. Sometimes it will limit maximum bandwidth available, but yeah if there's enough noise it will simply kill the connection
Well. If it negotiates a lower bit rate I'm pretty sure the audiophile level kit will tell you it's no longer 24 bit 96khz or whatever the cool kids use now.
But I'm pretty sure most High bitrate systems will have some level forward error correction, when the cable cannot deliver the snr needed to repair errors the signal will usually completely drop out. It will be perfect then gone.
Without error correction, random bit errors in digital audio are seriously jarring.
Having high quality (in terms of screening and contacts) won't have the kind of subtle change it can have with analogue signals. With analogue you're fighting things that can be minor like induced noise.
