Essence®gZero10 Interconnect cables single ended Yping, what I can say for sure - since I have tried it...The gZero6 works extremely well as a digital interconnect.The Copper Harmony, when installed on my digital IC, worked better than the impedance matched RCA's that came with it - probably due... | |
