RCA Digital: Stealth, Pure Note, Cerious

Cyberlight Datalink? It possesses all the attributes you seek. I am a big proponent of CT cabling, although I have not as yet heard the digital cable. I would be interested to hear from anyone who has compared the HT to the CT, especially since both use wireless technology.

A recent thread: http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?fcabl&1102613341&read&3&4&

I have a single box SACD player so I have no need for a digital cable but a few friends with DCS gear feel the Paragon is very analog sounding.

Rx8man, I'm curious about why you are ruling out the Stealth Sextet. Is it totally the cost? The Sextet offers all the virtues you are looking for in a dramaticly better fashion then any other digital cable I have ever heard. Someone was selling one here on the GON for $600.00, if its still avaliable. If not, I would recommend you try a used Acoustic Zen E=mc2 cable that is quite "analog" like and is very inexpensive compared to the other cables you mentioned. I had to spend another $1200.00 to get a significantly better sounding digital cable, the Artistic Arts reference, untill I auditioned the Sextet which became my present reference cable. I think the Acoustic Zen cable will give you what your looking for more then the three cables you mention, but for less money.

Thanks Stew & Bct, appreciate the insight.
Teajay,
I've been meaning to talk to you, seems you've been through quite a bit of this stuff.
The Sextet you mentioned "dissapeared" five minutes after I got off the phone with Serguei.
He mentioned the "one RCA end" looked a little suspect due to the addition of some black heatshrink, which he said he does not use, so I passed on it (maybe tampered or broke)
I read a lot of good things about the Paragon, thinking it would be a great deal at 50% off sale.
You mention the Artistic Arts & Acoustic Zen, have you heard the Paragon & Cerious or are the A.A. & A.Z. "more towards" the sound I'm after ?

Rx8man, I have a philosophy, "if you have not heard it, you don't have an opinion", therefore I can't give you feedback on Paragon or Cerious, since I have never auditioned either cable. However, I have auditioned quite a few cables in my system, and if you are looking for "analog sound" but still want clarity/details the Acoustic Zen E=MC2 is a great cable at a very reasonable price. I would recommend that you put it on your audition list and see if it gives you what you are looking for sonicly. Remember, the Artistic Arts cable retails for $1600.00 and gives you more details/extension/air, but is not necessarly a more "analog" sounding cable. Hope this helps.
