DAC-Help


Hi i have a Parasound DAC hooked up to a Denon CDP.I am using the Coaxial output.However i am using a Normal interconnect cable to hook it up,not the 75 ohm coaxial cable.I have noticed that the sound sometimes cuts off for a split second then comes on again.Could it be the cable??Is it absolutely neccessary that i use the right cable??Also i noticed that when i turn On and Off other electrical appliances in my hall the same thing happens.Could it be that my DAC is faulty. Any comments much appreciated.Thanks.

Sounds more like the muting turning on due to mistracking to me. Or it could be a clock problem that causes the DAC to de-synchronise from the transport. Neither case is likely to be caused by the interconnect. However, if you can spear it, get a Kimber DV-30 as it is reasonably priced and true 75 Ohm.
