Home Cable Asylum

Interconnects, speaker wire, power cords. Ask the Cable Guys.

The issue tends to be cable/component dependant.

It tends to depend on what make/model cable/connector, and/or what make/model components (both transport and DAC) the digital coaxial cable is placed between (synergy tends to be the key).

The prevailing wisdom as being a safe bet is 1.5m, while a 0.5m length tends to be less of an issue than a 1m length.

Equally important is the type of connector and termination method involved in a digital coaxial cable build in order to mitigate cable reflections rather than just rely on an ideal length to address the matter.
