    Default Black Cat Silverstar 75 Digital Cable

    Is there anyone using this Black Cat cable?

    I was wondering if it is any good. I need one between the transport and dac probably using BNC's

    I know Gazjam did own one some years ago

    Well Gary (Gazjam) was right about the Black Cat cable, it's fantastic... and getting better by the day..

    I really have to thank Gary for giving me the 'heads-up' on this cable

    I am using it between the Naim CD5XS and Naim Dac and it just sounds lovely

    The best I can descibe it is 'analogue' sounding but bare in mind I am useless at describing what I hear.. that's the best I can do at the moment though

    It is not a particularly cheap cable but I think it is worth every penny

    It comes in a nice little wooden box which is signed by the maker Chris Sommovigo



    Here is the link where I purchased the cable from

    Ah. Digital cable 'burn in'. Not heard of that before.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Ooops

    It's maybe not "burn in"... it might be just my ears getting used to how it sounds

    Bet that green digital cable I made would match it. Not BNC's though.

    I could make one with BNC's, should the need arise.
