Looking for a Giant Killer Digital cable

Thank you @roxy54 , that checks all the boxes as far as I'm concerned.
detailed in a natural way is what many other cables are missing.

@folkfreak

Appreciate the thoughtful insights and personal EXP accounts. Very cool.

ULTIMATELY I FOUND THRU THESE PAGES AND OTHERS, bnc AND aes WERE BETTER INTERFACES. SOME INTERESTING GEAR HOWEVER DID NOT ALWAYS provide both or either. Then many digital devices began hanging their hats onto USB conversion to get past or beyond PC Sound cards. Albeit I had quite good results using the likes of Lynx or a Hammer (??).   I still enjoy what the Lynx AES 16 express brings to the what ever DAC it feeds, even though the AES cable is quite low on the food chain. Gotham.

Presently it seems the streaming fascination has exploded in my absence and much press says the inherent bug a boos of USB have been soundly addressed to the point   USB has once more become a solid avenue for data transference.

I’m still residing in the camp of Ethernet to the streamer thingy but would then prefer the conduit du jour either be AES or BNC at the what ever dAC side.

RE directional cable

Every cable I’ve ever owned is directional.

Each one goes DIRECTLY from one conection to another. No stops in between. No detours. Picture taking. No Autograph seeking. No Chucky Cheese and definitely no loitering.

With luck, we’ll see first hand on several accounts in due time. Thanks.

Aren't we looking for these attributes in the rest of our system?

Thank you. yes. Of course.

That brief insight on tones and presentation is the bar I hold for any thing entering and remaining in my main audio system. Albeit, the usual arbiter is its affordability and just as with any long term relationship compromises eventually find their way into the equation due to financial constraints.

Fortunately, I’ve been able to put together outfits which demonstrate loads of ‘they are here’ or I am there events, without inordinately reducing the on hand listening catalog. Music listening for me is a devotion, not a discipline. Music making? That is where discipline is unavoidable.

… and yep. It do take a while some times.

OK. I’m thinking I’m sold. Actually on a couple two or three wires mentioned here.
Very nice. Huge thanks.

At the bottom of your budget i like the signal cable offerings either copper or silver. At the top, the Audioquest  Carbon is good.
