Which Coax Cable Do You Prefer Using?


I currently have a VH Audio Pulsar, Signal Cable Silver and Signal Cable Copper. I'm currently using the VH Audio Pulsar connected to a Musical Fidelity Vlink 192. Also have 2 transports. I prefer top to bottom extension in my digital and analog cables. What coax cables do you prefer using?

Emerson, a point to keep in mind is that the length of the cable, and the relationship between that length and various characteristics of the signal being provided by the particular source (characteristics that are almost never specified, such as signal risetimes and falltimes), may be at least as significant a factor as the type of cable. And unfortunately those signal characteristics will probably differ somewhat between the three sources you mentioned.

More often than not, it would be best to go with either a length of about 1.5 meters (about 5 feet), or with a very short length if that is practicable (e.g. 8 or 10 inches or less).

See this paper.
