The best digital IC, period.


I've spent a great deal of time, too much really, to find the best IC between my transport to my DAC. After listening to six cables from some big names and big $$ as well as some not so well names for small $$. The winner came out to be a HAVE/CANARE $25 IC. With this cable there is no eye candy at all, ZED, but it's combination of GEPCO International, VSD2001 high definition 75ohm serial series digital coax, and CANARE true 75ohm RCA terminations, simply killed all of the esoteric cables with a few others coming in very very close, but the HAVE/CANARE $25, 3' was just beyond belief. Now I know that people feel strongly to use at least 1.5M in length for a DIC, but with this company I tried cables at length of 12" to 1.5M, i tried them all and the best of the buch was their standard 3' cable, defying the math. Hey, for 25$?

Sab,

Did you not write this on the Teo XLR thread??

Fiddler, according to your logic, everyone who prefers one component or cable is suspect. This calls the honesty of all such posters into question. Are the only acceptable posts those that express confusion and uncertainly? What a sad day this would be if this were so.

Wash your mirror Sabby and take a look. Hey it's you in there isn't it Sabby? Yes indeed it is you!

Now when you go back and read your thoughts/ reaction about my posts here on this thread and the thoughts of yours on the Teo thread I see a strong form of hypocrisy.

Just reading between the lines thank you. =8^D
Essentialaudio,
Thanks. I've been told before that I'm a riot. I'm glad this meets with your approval. I'll be here 24/7. No cover charge.
Gloria,
William Shakespeare made a very insightful observation in Hamlet:

"The lady doth protest too much, methinks."

You and Essentialaudio are revealing more than you realize. Not everyone who reads these forums is as naive as you would wish.
In closing,

One last thought Sab,

Did you not write?

When Audiofeil or anyone else "calls me out" on anything I take Ted Denney's advice from Synergistic Research. I ignore that poster because their posts appear unnecessarily provocative and emotionally charged. They do not merit a response from me. I only reply in substance to respectful posts. At this stage in my life I feel under no obligation whatsoever to interact with anyone who does not show due respect.

You called me out and when I answered your dealer rap you called me a lier.

And then you write

I believe that respect is due to each poster on Audiogon no matter how deeply one disagrees with another poster. Otherwise, threads can quickly deteriorate in a vicious circle of accusations, bullying and mockery. We have seen this happen too many times here. No poster who is respectful of others on the forums owes anything whatsoever to the forum or another poster if they are not addressed with due respect. IMO.

Really Sab is this true?

I am done thank you.
