Cables in CASH list

[[email protected]]

Hi Chris,

I don't know if this has been mentioned before but did you ever consider adding the various different types of cables we all have to use in the CASH list?

For example USB, SPDIF Coax, maybe even TOSLINK?

Great site and very informative foum,

Barry

 

Please, this is not a post for all the nay-sayers to come out of their closets and jump on the "any cable will suffice" kick!

Hi Barry - Very good suggestion. There are actually some cables such as Toslink to mini-Toslink that don't work for high resolution content and some USB cables that don't meet the IEEE USB specification. By adding cables that not only work and meet specs but also degrade the sound less than others, readers could find even more value in the CASH List.

I love your criteria Chris. Even if people cannot come to grips with why or whether, an objective starting point from you would be a great entry for many as often cabling differences are masked at first by other issues. Once a system get's tuned in, knowing that you have solid product in the first place makes it easier to progress w/o fear or invalidation issues.

Thanks for the very prompt reply Chris. I hopefully look forward to seeing something like this in the future.
