@soix Funny you should say that. Shortly after my last post I had similar thoughts. I often recommend Monoprice to my non audio hobby friends and thought I should try a less expensive cable to determine the benefits of I2S for myself prior to trying a more expensive one. First I want to better position my system to best take advantage of I2S regarding the cable length. Once you mentioned the length issue I recalled reading about this with I2S. It wasn't until I upgraded my transport to having one with I2S this wasn't an issue. As the Jay's Audio transport made such an improvement I am happy with the DH labs cable. Thanks again.

Supra cables 2.1 HDMI cables are very good cables for almost nothing, I think $75 for a 1/2 meter cable. I lived with one for my I2S (Denafrips Iris to Denafrips Pontus II DAC), for about 6 months before upgrading. I'm currently using an Audioquest Vodka 48 8K/10K which is a noticeable upgrade, but if buying do not buy on eBay or from a Chinese supplier, they're going to be fakes. You can occasionally find them on sale from US suppliers for under $400 new |
@vthokie83 Thanks for the recommendations. The Supra cable is under consideration once I move towards I2S. |
