I would recommend using an iFi SPDIF iPurifier with a coax connection before the coax input of your DAC.
As for brand of cables my personal preference would be Mapleshade
My budget preference would be Pangea.
Suggestions for Digital and Analog Connections?
Hi All,
I’ve learned a lot from many of you in building my HiFi System. I’m on the final stretch for my current build (notice I didn’t say “I’m almost done”- I’ve come to recognize that I’ll be chasing the dragon forever) and could benefit from some input. Unexpectedly, I really like Roon so bought an Apple Mini and have an Auralic Aries G2.1 en route. It will be connecting to an Aavik D280 DAC. I need connections both to and from the DAC, which is limited to USB-B or digital coax in and RCA out. Any opinions on USB v coax? Product recommendations for these or RCA cables? No set budget, would be great if I could take care of this well for $2K or under but I can adjust if necessary.
Thanks!
