Tubulus Argentus I2s

@williewonka @jaytor @fthompson251 

I am looking to get a qood quality I2S cable. Any updates to your last posts? Is there any better cable that you have come across?

Many thanks in advance!

@dcpillai - unfortunately, I donot use this type os cable, so I am not able to make a recommendation.

My comments above were based on the construction of the cable you mentioned and also which aspects of cable design that I have learned over the past 15 years of DIY cable fabrication, will ensure a cables that perofrms to the highest standard

From my understanding, the I2S interface is how a company elects to use the basic HDMI interface...

• basically, I2S uses an HDMI socket/plug
• BUT some of the pins are not used for an I2S connection
• Which means any HDMI cable will successfully connect two I2S components
• but you CANNOT connect a component with HDMI Interface (i.e. inputs/ouputs) to a component that uses the I2S interface

So I took a quick look and found a couple of products that might work well

• Wireworld Silver conductor
• Golden Sound

OCC Silver is the best conductive metal at present, so I assume it should work better than copper, BUT OCC copper is almost as good and more affordable

Also take a look at this AGON thread for more recommendations

@dcpillai - I haven't tried any other i2s cables. I've been very happy with the sound from my Terminator Plus and haven't had any desire to try any other cables.
