Digital Cable Survey

Posted by: Kevin Richardson on 13 March 2015

I've been using my DC-1 BNC->BNC from NDX--> Hugo for the past nine months.  I am looking for a new BNC->RCA so I can get rid of that cheap adapter [which I assume is stealing a bit of the potential SQ from my system.]  Curious to see what other cables fellow forum members have tried with success or failure.

 

Thanks in advance.

Great tracks both. The Rammstein already owned and loved but the Matthew Halsall was new and delightful and is waiting to be downloaded. Lovely stuff.

 

As ever, a real delight to meet up with Gazza and a fascinating opportunity to hear some variations in a top notch Naim system in an impeccable listening room. I think I was almost as surprised as he was with the differences between the cables - they were not small - and, yes, the Indigo was a stonker. One of the things I really like about Chord cables is their rhythmic integrity - all the Naim groove with a sense of the band working together and enjoying themselves. In the case of the Indigo, this was in abundance. Good job I didn't bring the Sarum Supers with me .

 

I've heard Gary's 555 on a number of occasions and it's an utterly fab CD player but I'm going to have to agree with him when he says he needs to consider his source options from here on. The streamer combo in this instance was fabulous.
