In Reply to: RE: Upgrade for SPDIF Digital Cable posted by Chris K. on August 14, 2016 at 12:54:07
One thing I found about determining a target price point for a digital cable purchase is to consider spending as much as you might for a stereo pair of rca analog interconnects, meaning the performance level of a single digital cable should be budgeted to be at least equivalent to what one might spend for two analog interconnect cables. This is just a conceptual reference point, since budgeting for a higher-priced digital cable may provide substantially better performance from a cost-benefit POV. That said, I would need to know how much you might be willing/able to spend on a digital cable upgrade at this time in order to offer informed advice. What length digital cable does your audio system set-up require?

Duster, thanks and I agree on the price point equivalency. Having said that, circumstances definitely require that I stay in the "budget" range with a used cable being fine of $200 or less, as in the lines I mentioned.
My favorite solid core, pure silver, S/PDIF 75 ohm digital coaxial cables in that price range are the Illuminati D-60 (used price), Oyaide DR-510, and VH Audio Pulsar Ag terminated with KLE Pure Harmony or Absolute Harmony, for example.
Here's what I recommend while it's available. I recently bought gear from this AA Inmate. He's A-OK, in my book...
