RE: best digital coaxial SPDIF cable under $100

The bare copper shield that you are seeing in the image of the Oyaide FTVS-510 is a thin copper foil shield that does not need to be soldered to the return, since it makes intimate contact with the silver plated copper braided shield along the entire length of the cable, which acts as a drain wire for the copper foil shield. The braided shield simply needs to be flayed and twisted into a bundle, which is then soldered to the return.
