@sls883 Glad to help! The crazy thing is I literally just got my final price request from The Cable Co yesterday, on the DH Labs power cable and HDMI cable. Was ready to pull the trigger today until I saw the email from DH Labs this morning! Crazy good timing😊 saving an extra $100 going direct through DH Labs👍🏻 |
@kingbr Nice savings. I saved $48 on the ethernet cable. I'm not sure it will make a noticeable difference, but I needed a shorter cable, so I figured it was worth a shot. What length of HDMI cable are you ordering? I was told to make them short between a ddc and dac.

@sls883 Funny you mention the length of the cable. I just read something today where it is recommended to use <1m HDMI between DAC and DDC. Seems kind of crazy that that short of a length is recommended. Bizarre as I’ve always heard longer is better with most all cables…In fact John at The Cable Co strongly recommends at least 1m for all the cables I’ve bought.
I am going to go with 1m HDMI. I don’t think anything less will reach for me as I will have to have Hermes and Pontus separated. Don’t have the height clearance in my ent ctr to stack them… |
@jastralfu have you any info on the length of the HDMI/I2S cable between DAC and DDC? Any truth that this should be kept under 1m? |
