SPDIF Digital Cable Recommendations

@soix , Thanks for the heads up. 

@nonoise I think the D60 was also originally designed by Chris Sommovigo of Black Cat/Stereovox and my XV2 was a later iteration of that design.  Could be wrong though. 

Well, I guess I have some research to do.  Charlesdad brings up an interesting point that I forgot to include in my original topic and that is BNC vs RCA or a combination of both.  Does anyone have experience in SQ between an RCA and BNC plug?  

I have a couple of MIT power cords and have been happy with them,  I talked to the MIT rep and they have SPDIF cables in the $1k -3K range.  I wonder how much profit is in these cables...lol?  

@bigkidz once told me it’d be better to use an RCA to BNC adapter and use a BNC cable rather than using an RCA connection. It’s hard to imagine why adding two conversion points would be better than running straight SPDIF, but just wanted to share the info FWIW.  Incidentally, the Apogee cable I recommended earlier is also available with BNC connectors, just FYI.

Regarding your questions....the biggest SQ improvement in my sound came from when I added the Lucas Audio LDMS.  It was a bigger change than putting 16 Western Electric 300B tubes in my Canary Grand Reference Mono amps.  The WE tubes vs Gold Lion results  were better vocals and bass with the WE's.
