Best Digital Cable, Regardless of Price....
If your components have AES/EBU output/inputs, the Audience Au24 AES/EBU cable is excellent. IMO, it's a better cable than the VD Master. Audience offers a 30 trial period.

Avguru - you're the one who needs to lighten up. I was a guest at the man's home who owned the Esoteric gear. I didn't go there to review his system. He invited me over to listen to music. I've heard the system three times. Each time we listened f...

If "since CD is my priority," take a look at the Talk Electronics Thunder 3.1b, it's in your price range. IMO, unless you're going to go the Meitner route, forget about SACD and the modified universal player of the week.

Is the Rives Audio Parc an audiophile component
