Difference in sound between copper and silver digital cables?
@ pmboydAudio Envy Digital Cable fits your criteria easily and saves you $175; I compared against Black Cat Mk 2, Snake River Boomslang and Revelation and it beat them handily...I prefer the sound of copper by a good margin but AE copper design is...

@ grannyringLooking forward to your evaluation on those ODAMs; mine should arrive on Saturday and then onto the cooker and should have them installed by next weekend.Wig

Transformer coupled vs Capacitor coupled?
Guys,This is awesome and at some point would like to hear a direct coupled tube pre in my system! From my basic research, it's hard to discern if the pre is direct coupled on both in/outputs or if the transformers used are capable of a wide bandwi... 
HAVE you auditioned AUDIO NOTES ss: Audio Note CD3.1x/II
No doubt than Audio Note builds awesome Dacs but look into an upcoming builder/designer, SW1X Audio Design that's beating AN in side-by-side comparisons; I have a SW1X Dac III (Plus) (my designation) and love it.https://www.hifi-advice.com/blog/re...
