> 24 hourI feel that the Audioquest analog interconnects are a good cable, but there are better out there. However, the digital cables, such as this coaxial digital interconnect, work well and havent failed me yet. I use this one between the digital output of the Sweet Vinyl SugarCube and PS Audio DirectStream DAC, and it works perfectly, giving me a solid 24-bit/192kHz digital signal. And red is my favorite color, so...there is that. ;o)

> 24 hourThis cable is stupendous. All cables are not created equally and once you accept that in your heart, you will know amazing audio in your home. Taking over connector duties from my CD player to receiver from the popular Monoprice cable before it this Audioquest cable made the Monoprice cable sound like the cheap RCA cables that come free with gear.

> 24 hourHow much this cable will make in YOUR system, only you can determine. Im using this on a pretty high-end system and the positive results were immediate and substantial.

> 24 hourI have a very good reason for giving this cable a bad review. For one thing its too short, but I dont doubt that it is an upgrade from other cables. Right now I would highly advise checking out one of the greatest available deals on cables that Ive personally seen. That would be the Audioquest Silver Extreme available only from HCM Audio, sold on Amazon, and the HCM website. Also look up the discussions on digital coax cables having better performance if they are at least 1.5m. I have replaced my Forest Digital Coax with the Silver Extreme and it was a nice improvement in clarity and soundstage. This improvement was smaller than the difference these cables make as analog interconnects of course.

> 24 hourI have been using a $10 cable...until now, with my Bluesound Node streamer. Those cables aint bad, but they can only go so far. This is my first premium cable and yes, cables matter. Something I learnt. It was worth it.

> 24 hourFor all those who think cables wont make any difference, I wish it was so, so I dont have to spend a lot of money on them. But, they do. Bigtime. On a audiophile system, anyways. Swapped Mediabridge Ultra with AQ Cinnamon coax, from Gustard U12 XMOS to Teac UD-501 (than Colorado XLRs) to Teac HA-501, and voila: Brand new sound, and I will elaborate: Bass is deeper, more controlled, mids are silkier, highs lost the hiss and nasal harshnes when Gloria goes for rough r, big difference.

> 24 hourThis Audioquest cable presents with a lower quality soundstage, less accurate timing and slightly less precise imaging than the $12 C2G 29114 Velocity S/PDIF Digital Audio Coax Cable, Blue (3 Feet, 0.91 Meters - a Verified Purchase if you follow my reviews) that I also purchased from Amazon.

> 24 hourI have to say that this cable is excellent. I use it to connect from my Rega Apollo Cd player to my Musical Fidelity Dac. I originally had a cheapo cable. Once I added the Cinnamon....it was like ....wow. What an amazing difference in the sound. Great Job and affordable.

> 24 hourMan these cables really do sound very good.I also have the Cinnamon toslink for my other blu ray player going to the fantastic 89 dollar Project dac box e also purchased here on Amazon.I have always said better cables certainly do make a difference ever since I forked out almost 600 dollars for four pairs of Tara Labs interconnects for my stereo 16 years ago.
