black cat 110 digit aes/ebu vs snake river boomslang aes/ebu vs kimber orchid aes/ebu

I can't say as I haven't heard it but the Audio Envy Digital Coax has an accompanying review that states it bested the Black Cat Veloce, DH LabsBL-1 and a Grover Huffman. And it goes for $149.00.

Food for thought.

All the best,

thanks for the reply Nonoise I will do a search. Soix my amp is the Bryston 14b cubed, preamp is a Bryston bp17 cubed, Project rs2 transport, dac Bryston bda2, speakers are the Kindel pls-a. these are from the 80s with new seas drivers. I rebuilt xovers with Jupiter copper foil, Mundorf silver gold oil, Duelund bypass capacitors etc. power cords I use DH labs red wave cable for the amp and power conditioner. the Furutech fpso22n power cords for all other equipment. I am also using 2 HSU research vtf-2 mk4 subs . the sub cables also came from Acoustic Zen. I have other equipment but not related to this problem. Soix so am I thinking wrong with the digital cable?or maybe the dac ? I guess I am looking for a little more meat on the bottom.

Having owned Bryston components, my observation is they skew toward the tight, fast bass more than fuller and more robust bass, so I don’t think all those Bryston components are helping you there.  That said, I’ve no idea about your speakers so there’s that.  I guess if I was you I’d look at adding a tubed preamp that may be the most effective way for you to put more meat/flesh on the bones you’re looking for.  I’d recommend looking at Don Sachs preamp and consult with him on what tubes would work best for what you’re looking for and is very reasonably priced for what you’re getting.  I really think a tube pre is your ticket to happiness.  Hope this helps, and best of luck. 

I just looked at the 6sn7 preamp,  looks nice I will have to give him a call. thanks for the help!!! 

Kully560, I think Teajay uses the Black Cat as his reference and recommends it.   He steered me that direction when I was looking for a cable for my RS2 transport.  I ended up with a cheaper Wireworld cable that I’m happy with — 1.5m Wireworld Micro Platinum Eclipse AES Digital.  Cheers.
