Recommendation for Digital Coax


Looking for a good digital coax to go from my Bluesound Node 2i to my first stand alone DAC, an Aqua La Voce S2. Preferably something that won't break the bank.

If a manufacturer says the current should flow one particular direction. I am going to do it. There are so many variables in this pursuit… life is not long enough to wast time investigating things I don’t have to. I would prefer to listen to music.

The Empirical Design ED 120 Coaxial. It's not as good as my High Fidelity CT-1 Ultimate Reference digital, but it comes close and its so very low priced and affordable.

I installed my Apogee cable backwards once and it was awful.  Maybe it’s just because the cable was broken in one way, but I know it sounded like crap when installed backwards.  Further, I’ve since upgraded to an Acoustic Zen MC2 digital cable and it’s a big sonic upgrade albeit at a much higher price.  Buy one used and it’s not so bad.  Just my $0.02 FWIW.
