in my experience, the Wireworld Super Nova 5+ (now replaced with Supernova 6) completely outperformed the much more expensive Audioquest Optilink 5. It regularly receives top reviewers comments as well.
Choosing the right Toslink cable
Hey all,
I'm trying to choose a toslink cable to transport 2 channel signal from my Mac Pro to a Conrad Johnson Premier Nine DAC.
I've been shopping around a little bit and I've found the following (price high to low):
- Nordost Whitelight glass (around 175.00)
- Audioquest Optilink 3 or 5 (around 80.00-180.00)
- Van Den Hul Optocoupler (around 90.00)
- Wireworld Super Nova 5+ (around $80.00)
- River Cable Tos (around 70.00)
Any thoughts?
