I finally have decided it was time to move to a streamer, thus I bought a Bluesound Node; if nothing else, it’s a starter streamer, and not a bad place to start. I’m not using the Node’s internal DAC, preferring to route the digital output to my Bricasti M1. The streamer and DAC are connected via a modest and eminently listenable Blue Jeans cable however I wouldn’t mind extracting more juice from the Node, if that’s possible, while keeping in mind I’m not going to spends $550 for a cable for a $550 streamer. Also, if and when Bluesound roles out the promised USB output capability in the node, I’m going to hook up my AQ Coffee USB cable. Years ago I had a green hornet spidf cable which would have been a good choice here, if I still had it, but that’s long sold as I don’t keep gear I no longer use. What’s a good compromise for the here and now? Perhaps it is the Blue Jeans cable!
For perfect output to input spidf match. You want 75ohm 1.5mt (no less), I found industry top of the line 75ohm Belden Digital cable has been the best for me, with quality BNC connectors or rca done yourself both ends. And it will be 1/50th the price of boutique audio ones and probably better Cheers George
