Revisiting Chinese Knockoff Cables
I have original Nordost Odin 2 cables. One of the members in my audio group obtained these Chinese cables and he came to my house to compare them. The interconnects, especially the gold, looks very similar to the original (from the outside). They ...

@panzrwagn I started reading your post and it was fine until you said there is no noise in digital. This is absolutely not true. Take your phone out and go to a dark area and take a picture. You see noise? Why? Everything is purely in digital real...

Was I Expecting Too Much
