AudioQuest - Cinnamon - Digital Coax Cable - .75 Meter

I should know by now that every time I buy one of the nicer audioquest cables that it will make a noticeable difference in my system. So it is here... I went from a Forest to a Cinnamon, and sure enough the cinnamon is clearly, noticeably better. Differences between cables are never night & day but if you have a quality system and care about subtle improvements, you’ll get it here. So much for those who say it’s just ones and zeroes so you can’t hear differences between usb cables. Try it yourself and you tell me. I also bought a cinnamon digital coax cable and found the same thing - noticeably better sound. No idea why, but it just is better.

This 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.

How 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.

I 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.

Very good build quality. I cant compare it to any cheaper version coax, I dont have cheap anything in my gear but it matches or accedes the quality of more expensive RCA cables I had used prior to this.

Man 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.

I 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)

I got the Bluesound node for streaming. I used Bluesound DAC but I was told I could use DAC of my McIntosh CD player, so I got this Coaxial digital cable and the sound was prenominal!
