I just did some modding on my SB Duet and SN Dackit. I replaced the digital RCA connectors with BNC connectors. I then made my own BNC cable using 75ohm RG6 coax. This is the real deal. I can't believe what a major difference this made. I used to think that jitter was snake oil used to sell products, but this $25 upgrade has made such a huge difference in my system. The highs are under control, bass has more substance and everything just seems to be much clearer. I'm assuming this is due to the fact that my DAC does not do anything to reduce jitter.
Has anyone else done similar mods? I'm sure this is not necessarily new news, but just have not seen much talked about the benefits of a true 75ohm digital signal provides. By the way, the cable is also 1.5m. I've read in many discussions that this is ideal for digital cables.
