I make my own DC umbilicals with Oyaide connectors and bundles of stranded 20awg .999 dead soft silver wire from Rio Grande, inside polyolefin heat-shrink tube from McMaster Carr. The effective gauge totals around 11awg. I'm using them from a Hynes SR7 four-rail power supply to SOtM USBultra, SOtM SMS-200Ultra, MicroRendu, SRS Rubidium master clock, Antelope LiveClock, and Merlin BBAM.
Audioquest DC cables - why are there almost no high end DC cables?
Hi everyone,
I noticed it's very difficult to get high end dc cables.
Why is that?
Surely a lot of components use DC connections: LPS, DAC/Streamers, HDD's, Switches.
I have been reading that a good DC cable need 2 things:
1. Geometry: starquad
2. Thick awg (12?)
Now I want have a DC cable made with audioquest wiring. These tick the above two requirements.
Can I use AQ type 4, CV4 or Rocket33 to make a DC cable?
The plug I will be using is Oyaide. Oyaide has high quality DC plugs in 2.1 and 2.5.
Ideas?
