Which digital cable to use with a Benchmark DAC-1


Looking for a good digital coaxial cable to use with my Benchmark DAC-1. Presently thinking of using the Stereovox HDXV. Do some of you have something to suggest ? Is there as much difference between digital cables as there is between interconnect ?

The transport is a Yamaha MCX-1000 music server.

Thank you

In my experience there are significant differences in the sound quality of digital cables. They definitely do not sound the same. The transport to DAC connection is critical to the sound of your entire system. I would suggect that you narrow your interests to 2 or 3 cables then audition them in your system from the Cable Company. Keep the one you like and return the rest. I don't know what your connections are as far as inputs and outputs but I would suggest in order of preference: XLR, BNC, RCA. Good luck.
I am also using the Stealth Sextet.

You answered your own question........Stereovox HDXV, you can't go wrong and for the money, it's a steal!
Another amazing choice with highest quality and giveaway price is Encore Signature digital IC from Joe Mazzaglia at Auricle Audio Design.
His auction can be found under the search word "sucks" which doesn't seem very promising until you read the clever advertising copy.
Yes, my experience too is that the digital cable makes a difference as large as with the other interconnects. I use a LAT International DI-30 Signature, in a balanced version, which is recommended for use with the Benchmark in order to get the best sound. In my system LAT has outshone much more expensive cables. I would try several cables before settling on one.
HI UTOPIA,
I AGREE WITH TEAJAY & RJA. THE ACOUSTIC ZEN IS A VERY GOOD (& ENJOYABLE) DIGITAL CABLE. IT IS BETTER THAN THE STEREOVOX.
ALSO, YOU MIGHT WANT TO GO INSIDE YOUR DAC-1 AND JUMPER OUT THE DIGITAL CABLE SELECT SWITCH. IT IS AN AUDIBLE (& CHEAP) IMPROVEMENT.
