Audience made me a Conductor DIN-RCA cable. The Conductor is their budget cable; it was the only cable they could incorporate into a DIN connector. I'm a big fan of the Audience Au24 cables, their top of the line model. So far, based on my memory (relaibility questioned), the DIN-RCA connection is better than the RCA or XLR outs on the Opus 21. More resolution, closer to the music. If i get motivated I may look for other DIN-RCA cables to try. The Audience Conductor cable runs about $200. I'm curious now and may compare the Opus 21 with the DIN-RCA cable to my Audio Note DAC.
Anyway, the Opus 21 is a great CD player. Never heard the MF, but I've never heard a bad word about the RA.
