If you need to use toslink, glass is the only way to go. I use a Sonicwave glass toslink cable that I bought for about $25 on Amazon. Beat every plastic (aka fiber optic) cable I've tried.
Cambridge Dacmagic? Real improvmt or hype?
I have zero appreciable diff using this dac and wondering if it is real or hype or am I not hooking it up properly. I have a McCormack DNA-1 / Adcom GFP 750/ and Rotel RDV 1050. Also connected a western digital media player into the dac.
I use optical toslink to connect cd and media player to the dac and then analog rca from dac to preamp?
Would using the balanced outputs make a significant diff?
