I'd just buy a cable from Monoprice.
I'm not forcing my opinion on anyone.
I'm giving very good advice to anyone that wishes to take it.
The reported differences in these expensive interconnects and USB cables etc is auto-suggestion.
Auto-suggestion is massively powerful in hearing and of course people want to flatter themselves that they are amongst a privileged few who can hear some difference in some silly cable.
Well, they've been conned plain and simple.
If you take apart one of these expensive cables you will see that the manufacturing costs were a fraction of the asking price.
Remember that the manufacturers have absolutely no research and development costs.
The people who claim to be able to hear differences with this cables have not demonstrated this in good blind ABX tests.
I recommend that people spend money on honest manufacturers of sensible well made cables. Not voodoo rubbish.
BTW I have listened to music with a great many types of interconnect in my time. Unlike you (I suspect) I remember well before these ridiculous cables arrived, I was even taken in by them myself when they arrived (about 30 years ago).
It's just auto-suggestion.
Don't waste money on this nonsense.
