Chris Somoviggo makes some of the best and best value true 75ohm cables there are -- his current entry level SilverStar is $222 but you could look for one of his products used (although I don't see any of the entry level currently out there)
Looking for a Giant Killer Digital cable
Hello all,
I’m looking for a Budget ‘Giant Killer’ RCA coaxial cable to connect my Oppo 203 to a DAC for music playback.
Can someone suggest something currently available in the $50 to $150 price range?
If however your experience says some new Optical cable in that range is as good or better, please, by all means do mention it as I could go either way of course!
A 1M to 1.5M will be sufficient.
Huge thanks!

@ghosthouse Thanks. I have a BNC by Oyiade 1.3M I like a lot. Full and smooth while being extended and with quite sufficient bottom end. I’ll look into what’s up with them currently. Thanks again. Good call. . . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . @akg_ca Natch! But ya gotta get in where ya fit in sometimes too. . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . david_ten yeah. Mostly. PM me. I’ll fill ya in. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . @folkfreak I recall that name. was he behind the Streovox ultra thin steel cables? I bought one of those and it was OK. a tad edgy back then but did well with most well done recordings. It sat on my USB to BNC stick thingy. Hell, I can’t even recall what its name is. Hahaha The Oyiade BNC wire replaced it eventually. > $200 though, is gonna be off limits for me I think for this particular operation.. |
A bit more and you could have a real giant killer, the Standard BNC with RCA adapters. $275. Here are jitter measurements: https://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?topic=154425.0 Steve N. Empirical Audio |
