Is the JPS DIGITAL cable as good on CD as reviewed


Any thoughts as to the merits of the JPS DIGITAL cable on a good CD player as compared to others.Thanks.

For sake of clarity, are you guys talking about a power cord designed for use with digital products or an interconnect designed for use as a digital link between transport & DAC? Sean

As discussed over at AA, this is at least very similar to a production Eupen power cord that can be purchased in small quantities directly from Eupen's US distributor. There is some controversy as to whether or not it is a stock Eupen model or if JPS has them built to slightly different spec's. Most that have tried both have found that if there is a difference in performance, that the difference is so small as to be negligible. Sean

I don't know the specifics of the JPS design, but i do know that proper impedance characteristics can DRASTICALLY improve the sonics of a system. If JPS is using some type of impedance compensation network on their digital cabling, along with good quality conductors and dielectric, i don't doubt that it is a good sounding cable. I've been using a cable that has those features for several years now and Stereophile ran an article about this very subject about a year or so ago. The fact that any cable can be modified in this manner and improve performance makes it a no-brainer in my book. Why more manufacturers don't use such an approach, i don't know. Sean
