AudioQuest - Cinnamon - Digital Coax Cable - .75 Meter

Nice improvement over the Monster digital coax it replaced. Im very pleased.

Very good build quality. I cant compare it to any cheaper version coax, I dont have cheap anything in my gear but it matches or accedes the quality of more expensive RCA cables I had used prior to this.

I got the Bluesound node for streaming. I used Bluesound DAC but I was told I could use DAC of my McIntosh CD player, so I got this Coaxial digital cable and the sound was prenominal!

Really well made....I would like to try there speaker cables

This Audioquest cable presents with a lower quality soundstage, less accurate timing and slightly less precise imaging than the $12 C2G 29114 Velocity S/PDIF Digital Audio Coax Cable, Blue (3 Feet, 0.91 Meters - a Verified Purchase if you follow my reviews) that I also purchased from Amazon.

For all those who think cables wont make any difference, I wish it was so, so I dont have to spend a lot of money on them. But, they do. Bigtime. On a audiophile system, anyways. Swapped Mediabridge Ultra with AQ Cinnamon coax, from Gustard U12 XMOS to Teac UD-501 (than Colorado XLRs) to Teac HA-501, and voila: Brand new sound, and I will elaborate: Bass is deeper, more controlled, mids are silkier, highs lost the hiss and nasal harshnes when Gloria goes for rough r, big difference.

How much this cable will make in YOUR system, only you can determine. Im using this on a pretty high-end system and the positive results were immediate and substantial.

I have a very good reason for giving this cable a bad review. For one thing its too short, but I dont doubt that it is an upgrade from other cables. Right now I would highly advise checking out one of the greatest available deals on cables that Ive personally seen. That would be the Audioquest Silver Extreme available only from HCM Audio, sold on Amazon, and the HCM website. Also look up the discussions on digital coax cables having better performance if they are at least 1.5m. I have replaced my Forest Digital Coax with the Silver Extreme and it was a nice improvement in clarity and soundstage. This improvement was smaller than the difference these cables make as analog interconnects of course.
