Which Coax Cable Do You Prefer Using?

I am using the AUDIOQUEST - EAGLE EYE DIGITAL CABLE with the dBS system.

Prior to listening to this cable (I had it on loan a full week), I used to think that the dBS plastic box hanging from the cable was in fact a water-tight case where the ''snake-oil'' was!

All joking aside, this is one revealing cable - expensive for sure, but it makes the whole system sound the best it can.

Digital cables are probably the items where a small increment in improvement will cost the most money.

The Audioquest Eagle Eye digital with the dBS (battery) system is obscenely expensive in my view, but not a bad purchase if you can find it used.

As good as it is with its price of around $ 750.00, it is only marginally better than another cable I paid $ 250.00 for. But it IS a bit better and you CAN hear the difference in the extra resolution and transparency. But I could live with the cheaper cable of course.

Whether it is a worthy investment is of course highly debatable.

I used a very non-scientific approach to justification: Given the substantial price of my speakers, pretty fancy integrated amp, CD player and Dac, I figured it cost me $ 120.00 per component to upgrade them all !

Had I discovered this cable before, it would have prevented me from selling my previous amplifier for sure.
