That's surprising. Brightness would suggest a presence of the jitter (that translates to added noise). What about clarity/transparency and imaging? It is remotely possible that some electrical noise is injected from the source, possibly thru the shield, while longer cable, having more shield inductance, impedes electrical noise injection more, but I'm grasping at straws. Did you keep both gear pieces in the same physical location for both tests? Did you notice it at the same time of the day? Often people experiment after work and dinner around 6-7PM, when radio stations power is suddenly reduced by FCC regulations (better signal propagation at night).
Question about length of SPDIF COAX interface cable length
Hi, maybe someone can assist me here.
I intend to connect my CD Transport to my DAC/Streamer by way of 75 ohm COAX cable. I have two cables to choose from, both the exact same make and model of cable with the exception of the length. One cable is exactly 1.5 meters, the other cable is approximately 8 inches tip to tip, both cables will fit between Transport and DAC, my question is which one to use? The cables are made by HAVE/Canare.
Thanks so much for you kind assistance!
