Looking for a Giant Killer Digital cable



Hello all,

I’m looking for a Budget ‘Giant Killer’ RCA coaxial cable to connect my Oppo 203 to a DAC for music playback.

Can someone suggest something currently available in the $50 to $150 price range?

If however your experience says some new Optical cable in that range is as good or better, please, by all means do mention it as I could go either way of course!

A 1M to 1.5M will be sufficient.

Huge thanks!

Budget ‘Giant Killer’ RCA is an oxymoron.

(1) You only get what you pay for...full stop; . and
(2) The equipment and accessories audio performance in this hobby is a direct result arising that everything is only built to its price-point ;
(3) At that stated price-point strata, the audio performance differentiation between all the perceived contenders and pretenders is negligible to nil.... so its distilled down to "...just pick one of ’em...." exercise.
Chris Somoviggo makes some of the best and best value true 75ohm cables there are -- his current entry level SilverStar is $222 but you could look for one of his products used (although I don't see any of the entry level currently out there)

Thanks. I have a BNC by Oyiade 1.3M I like a lot. Full and smooth while being extended and with quite sufficient bottom end.

I’ll look into what’s up with them currently. Thanks again. Good call.

I recall that name. was he behind the Streovox ultra thin steel cables? I bought one of those and it was OK. a tad edgy back then but did well with most well done recordings. It sat on my USB to BNC stick thingy. Hell, I can’t even recall what its name is. Hahaha
The Oyiade BNC wire replaced it eventually.

> $200 though, is gonna be off limits for me I think for this particular operation..
