In the Thread: Any good sounding AES/EBU interfaces out there?
Post Subject: More swallowable didital… via a d-cable.Posted by Romy the Cat on: 9/18/2007

Thanks, Paul, I defiantly not going to do DIY cables. I went to

  http://www.redco.com/shopexd.asp?id=653

… and “designed” my own cable. It cost penny, it might not be good but it will be with AES/EBU specifications and it will make me start doing, at least will make me to see if it is worth to peruse with that DAC. Perhaps if the DAC tune out to be OK then I will convert it to S/PDIF to use my Synopses cable. Also the RedCo does custom interface to for my Lynx16 card - there are not a lot of people do it…

 Defiantly it is an idiocy to think about digital cables in term of “harmonics” and if other would do it I would the very first who would come with “adjectives” labeling the people. All metal digitals cables that I tried had to various degree different HF extension, different level of HF “cleanliness”, different HF zippiness and slightly different mix between the upper mid and HF.  With the Synopses cable is changed my virginity and it is set the game in completely different level.  It actually does something that mergers all frequencies together and makes digital to sound like way more swallowable then it usually is (even in context of TLO transport that is notoriously ferocious with details)

 So, if the DAC that I got turn out to be “interesting” then I will look for AES/EBU connector that does the “Synopses effect” (the DAC is AES/EBU only). The problem is that I have no idea why the S/PDIF Synopses sound as it is and therefore I I did not know what to look for in the new digital cable contestant.
