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!

That’s better. Wasn’t able to see exactly which wire you refered to in the previous Link.

Can’t RCA termination maintain the 75Ohm protocol?

No, RCA is never 75 ohms.

Been very happy with my Nordost Silver Shadow digital coax, it is terminated in bnc both ends and i use bnc to rca adapters both ends.
Some NOS around for between 150 to 200 i believe
Have to admit though that Nordost does not suit every system, works well in mine and i preferred the sq over a couple much more spendy audioquest and wireworld cables i tried.

+1 for the Cerious Graphene Extreme. For $200 it is a great digital cable.

I've tried several others that cost more, and since I've started using the Graphene Extreme, I am never tempted to stray.
