Hello,
All is in the title, which one is the best? (and that's for a reasonable price) :
- Belden 1694A
- Mark Grant G1000HD
- Missing Link Art Dark
- River Cable Digiflex Plus
About "the best", I mean a cable with powefull bass + warm and focused midrange + sweet and precise treble + large soundstage + big dynamic and at last but not the least, ... a very musical cable.
Thanks
Remy

Forgive me, but I love idea that a digital cable can tell the difference between bass and treble, and adjust according to taste.
I want one...

Hi Carl,
I have read many, many, many threads on this forum. But I still don't know which one is the best. You can check, there is no clear answer.
That is why I asked the question: for a reasonable price, which coaxial cable has the best results with our Non-SL DSP speaker?
Mark Grant ? Belden ? Missing Link ? VDH ? River Cable ? Transparent ?
And what improvements over M digital speaker cables?
Thanks
Remy

Hi again,
There are no clear answers, that's my point. This thread will also go nowhere fast.
All you will get is a bunch of polarised views, the pro-cables and the anti-cables.
The only way for you, in your room, with your system is to get some in on demo and listen to them.
Regards,
Carl

On my side, I tested a BlackCat Silverlight 75 Ohms, with BNC connector, between my G68 and the center DSP speaker. But the sound was too bright, too focused. It wasn't musical.
Compared to the M speaker cable, there was an audible difference.

How did the BNC connectors work as both G68 use phono. Did you change fittings or use adaptors. If adaptors, that's an inherently flawed solution if you after a quality boost IMHO.

Hello Ian, Like Stereovox, the BlackCat have BNC adaptors. Regards

This one is over ten times as good as the Black Cat ones. Sadly they've only got one left in stock, so no good for a pair of DSPs. Also they only seem to sell them in one metre lengths, which would mean your DSPs would be rather too close together to get good stereo imaging.
