I also read a thread here a bunch of years ago, where Charles Hansen of Ayre, recommended unplugging TV and DVD player before listening to music...makes a difference in my system
Digital cable length- SPDIF vs AES/EBU- 1.5 meter for either?
Some have postulated, with Steve Nugent at the forefront, that a digital cable between source and DAC should be 1.5 meters. The articles I've read nominally speak of 75 ohm SPDIF cables. Does the same length reccomendation hold true for a 110 ohm AES/EBU cable?
