I might be mistaken, memory not being what it used to be, but I seem to recall Steve Nugent at Empirical Audio who goes by Audiogon username:” Audioengineer”(?), might have done some measurements on this matter and suggested not using less than 1.5 meters.
Question about length of SPDIF COAX interface cable length
Hi, maybe someone can assist me here.
I intend to connect my CD Transport to my DAC/Streamer by way of 75 ohm COAX cable. I have two cables to choose from, both the exact same make and model of cable with the exception of the length. One cable is exactly 1.5 meters, the other cable is approximately 8 inches tip to tip, both cables will fit between Transport and DAC, my question is which one to use? The cables are made by HAVE/Canare.
Thanks so much for you kind assistance!
