I Need an XLR Digital Cable.
Q1. Has any one started with a $20-30 one then later tried $100 cables and see a (big) jump in performance? I’d like to hear from those whom actually did the A/B tests.
Q2. Should I start with the under dog, no name brands, hyped or should I start with big name brands’ entry levels?
I’m using 1 analog XLR cable as a digital cable from MIT MI-330 to play/ verify the benificial of having a DAC .... and it sure is.
(Ayre cx-7 CD player only provides 1 XLR as digital output source. )

Now, I agree with Kosst_amojan and ev1 else in here. I’d like to reaffirm that while subtitute ANALOG cables for DIGITAL is do-able, the result was horrible. I’m the OP and would like to update. While waiting on my xlr DIGITAL 110 ohm aes/ebu cables that I won from eBay to arrive, I next-day a $6 xlr to rca adapter from Amazon so I could, meanwhile, re-use my good & decent entry level DIGITAL 75 ohm S/PDIF rca cables that I already have and the result was astounding. They put my ANALOG xlr MIT Mi-330 to a shame. The music from my DAC was just now so beautiful and enjoyable and I could listen for hours. (it’s already 5am and I still could not get up. Go figure! ) Thank you ev1 |
Here ya go. I prefer this to my more expensive and well-regarded Stereovox digital cable, and I think John Atkinson used it as his reference for a while too. 40 bucks for 1m with free shipping. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N6XL1XW/ref=twister_B01MUH69P1?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 |
