I’m looking for an Digital XLR cable


Hi all,

I'm getting a Pontus ll DAC and I'll be needing a digital XLR cable to run from my transport to the Pontus ll.  Almost every cable I currently have is Audioquest, but I would be interested in what others are using and why.  

Thanks for your input.

If you don't want to spend an arm and a leg I can vouch for Atlas Cables AES/EBU from the UK. There are definitely better and more expensive cables out there but unless you can get trials by mail it's very difficult to compare a bunch of digital AES/EBU cables because most dealers are only going to stock a couple of brands. In my experience there isn't one cable manufacturer that does it all right. Some are good at power others good at interconnects etc. YMMV.

I really don't think Atlas compares to Morrow Audio and considering the OP's system spending more than $500.00 probably isn't going to achieve much in the price to performance stakes. Yeah Morrow Audio great.....lol....Black Friday Sale...come on down!

And speaking of Morrow, are their cables  any good?
 

Happy thanksgiving Everyone!
