Best Digital RCA cable under $100 new or used?

Hi Hoopster

For under $100 if you can find them I really enjoy the McCormack/Mod Squad Wonderlink J Digital Coax cable. A cable that I would buy myself but can't since I have the Wonderlink is the Black Cat Veloce Digital Coax cable. It is made by Chris Sommovigo.

Good luck with your search.

Check Cullen Custom Cables. A 1.5m will cost you only $55.
I bought two of these and could not ask for anything to do a better job.

For a little over $100 I found Joe Mazzaglia’s Auricle Audio Design Digital Standard cable to be excellent, and he offers a special intro price that might be closer to what you need.

Another excellent RCA digital comes from A'goner Acreyes but I don't know about pricing.

And as others have already indicated, digital IC length makes a big difference to the coherence of the music. 1.5m is optimum.

Termination is paramount! More important than wire type, really. 75 ohm Canare connectors are the truest. So, I would go with Signal Cable.

At $99, I found the Transparent Digital Link to be significantly better than other similarly priced RCA SP/DIFs I tried. It was smoother, more musical, less artificial sounding with more natural detail and bloom to the dynamics.
