Following this thread closely as I'm looking to get a pair from Geoff too. How about digital cable? Can I use the IC from Geoff for digital cable?
Thanks,
William
Side tracking a bit, I made a quick DIY digital cable cause I needed a quick fix till I find out if I can go I2s or not, and was using a borrowed digital cable (If I can't go I2s was thinking about a Lenehan dig cable). The one I was using was very good, to me anyways, really made an impact on my system (don't think for a minute I'm anywhere near the level you guys are at). So I got 3 strands 0.25 solid core, 1.5meters long, braided it (got mom to help
), 2 strands positive, 1 negative, cheap jaycar plugs, no solder. Sounded decent straight out
15 hours burn-in this thing started to really sing, was up till 5am on the second day when it started breaking in, and still continues to improve daily
What can I say I'm blown away I was expecting pretty much NOTHING to come from this. Haven't made direct comparisons yet, but my money is going on the DIY to better the one I was borrowing. Surely this DIY cable is not true 75ohm.
