Best Digital Cable, Regardless of Price....

In response to Steve's (leme@lone.com) 12/10/04 query on Dominus AES/EBU, I asked Jim Aud this very question in connection with (no pun intended) retermination. Answer: the Dominus has both 75 and 110 ohm wires in them.

Have also noticed shortest length for Marigo Apparition is 1 1/2 meters.

If your components have AES/EBU output/inputs, the Audience Au24 AES/EBU cable is excellent. IMO, it's a better cable than the VD Master. Audience offers a 30 trial period.

Kharma Enigma AES/EBU.....

The PAD Dominus Ferox-version, is my choice.

About the length of digital cables. Some cable-makers say that because of the speed of the electric information/signal passing through a digital cable, the cable will not COLOUR the sound unless it is 1.5m or longer.

In fact ( words from manufacturer - not PAD ) the lesser the length of the cable - the purer the signal will be to it´s original.

BUT, this is not always the wanted thing. Colouring can be intended - or even needed for desired sound reference.

I´m not saying that this is the LAW, and in my own experience I´m not convinced...

Thus the length.
