Auricle Audio Design or Atlas Opus digital coax??


Regardless of price wich one would you choose? I read that a digital cable of a least 1,50 meters will reduce jitter in comparison to shorter ones. It seems the Auricle audio design is only available at 3' lenghth, a bit short, still they promise almost no jitter on their website. Did anyone tried both cables?

If you want to hear the superbly revealing and musical
Auricle Audio Design "Encore!" Signature Digital IC
in a longer length,
why not ask Joe Mazzaglia to build it for you?
On his website it requests "please email for longer cables."
Thanks Listener57, it seems i missed that bit that you can request longer cables on the Auricle Audio Design website. I have read on older topics here at Audiogon that both the Auricle Audio Design and Atlas Opus are very good in comparison with most cables. The Atlas Opus is also THE reference cable to test equipment with for a certain respected hifi magazine. The Atlas Opus used to be about twice the price of the Auricle Audio Design cable but can nowadays be found for half the price new. I bet i won't be dissapointed with either the Atlas or Auricle cable but if someone had heard both let me know!
Rcduck7,
Post your decision and what you hear when you install your new digital IC.
If you speak with the designer, Joe Mazzaglia, he can tell you about the results replacing other brands with Auricle's best.
The Atlas Opus may not have enough sales in the US to ever find someone who has directly compared your two finalists.
I can tell you that in my systems with Auricle everything in a recording is revealed letting the great recordings deliver their full audio and musical thrill.
Best luck making your pick.
I also opened up a thread on Audiocircle in the meantime. Someone who tested more then a few cables also recommends the Atlas Opus, especially for timing and rhythm, something that is a problem with a lot of digital cables he says. He didn't have the Auricle Audio Design i believe. I also got a few recommendations for a Black Cat Veloce digital RCA, it certainly got good reviews on 6moons and Positive Feedback. I didn't have contact with Joe Mazzaglia yet. I'm not i a big hurry to buy a digital RCA but i guess within a few weeks. Recommentdations are still welcome.
