Recommendation for Digital Coax


Looking for a good digital coax to go from my Bluesound Node 2i to my first stand alone DAC, an Aqua La Voce S2. Preferably something that won't break the bank.

Pangea It was recommended to me to get 1.5m, there is a model above this one, but I couldn't find the link. Call them ~ $160.00

 

Just buy this for 50 bucks.

Blue Jeans Cable is a great place to start.

Familiar (and have purchased) with BJC.  Noticed something interesting here: the BJC and the Geistnote offerings appear to use the same RCAs?

@soix - the cable you linked - it looks like the strain relief is rigidly connected to the RCA; is that the case?  Just curious.

@christian Yes, it is.  Not sure why you’re asking, but Apogee is a pro audio company so their stuff is built to take some punishment, FWIW. 

Why not optical?  A good toslink pof is a good toslink pof, and no need to consider 100th of coaxial brands and models.

Optical is the most accurate, efficient way to transfer data from point a to point b, undisturbed.

@chrisr  From everything I've been reading it has it's own drawbacks. Not sure why exactly but I've always been told coax. What you say makes sense especially if a much shorter length is a better fit but you are the first to mention it so.....

Maybe @auxinput can let us know?
