What Digital Cable?

Posted by: GeraldUK on 16 August 2011

I am using a Unitiserve with 555 and Dac into 552 with a Sarum i/c btw dac and 552 and DC1 btw Serve and Dac. I also have an indigo digital on my dvd player which isnt being used much so considering if it would better used on the Serve and maybe swap DC1 over there or sell against something else for the DVD into the AV2. Any suggestions ? Can the DC1 be reconfigured into RCA and if so any idea of the cost ? I have spoken with Chord (who are very helpful just like Naim) and cost to reterminate the Indigo is 110 quid.

I have been busy lately and just caught this thread.

 

I have an identical set-up US/555/552/Sarum. I would strongly recommend that you listen to the Sarum digital IC which is significantly better than Indigo.

 

Hope you enjoy the sound quality as much as I  do.

Hi Gerry - I've decided to reterminate the indigo as funds don't allow for another Sarum at present.
I don't dare have a demo so will wait to save some cash up first!
Thanks for the reply
