Did you order a Oyaide DB-510 that's terminated RCA from one end and BNC from the other or am i missing something ? if yes from which shop ? |

Thanks a lot |

Based on my present system, I could tell that optical is a compromise. Very few digital cable reviews here in head-fi. Kudos to Slim.a. My search for a most bang for buck cable begins. My 19MK3 has BNC as well. But unfortunately, my transport doesn't. |

It's the last piece of the puzzle for my system since I'm still using the Canare BNC I bought from A-gd. It's good but it's a stopgap at best. I was considering the latest Stereovox until your report was posted. Thanks for saving me some $$$$ Peete. |
