Arggh. Hate when that happens. Meant to say "Let's be helpful to the OP, not hi-jack their thread."

@geoffkait Sighted listening tests are useless data unless combined with double-blind, quick-switching, and level-matched, as a way to demonstrate bias. @pokey77 An answer to OP was pretty much given by others (who believe in differences), in that it is so heavily a system/personal dependent, that one cannot say which is best, only giving their testimonials on what they have heard, or simply listing everything that is available and telling OP to audition. There is no actual answer to which digital BNC cable is the “best” for <$4000. My recommendation would be the BJC Belden 1694A BNC cables. |

Mzkmxcv765 has indicated that to his ears, the Belden cable is the best. I have compared belden cables to other brands and belden has been on the bottom of my list. Belden is usually priced on the low side, so if $$$ are a big concern, by all means, audition them. If you have $400 to $4000 to spend, there are many other cables that will be better, sonically and physically (IMO). I haven’t seen WBT connectors on Belden or on other cheaper cables and connectors can/do make a difference. In fact, wbt cable ends probably will cost much more than the Belden cable itself. |
