Hi,
I made a cable that I am testing out in my setup by braiding 4 solid silver wires [from the group buy] together and used a vampire RCA at each end. It seems to be working fine.
I keep hearing about true 75ohm cable and such. Do I need some special kind of cable or do I need to do anything differently when making a digital cable?
Also I was wordering about directional cables. All of my Zu Cable is directional. How exactly is this done and are there any benifits to it?
I will probably end up re-terminating the cable with some standard RCA connectors of some kind as I hate these vampire RCA's... so if anything can be done to improve my digital cable I could do it at that point.
I used a square sinnet braid and attached two wires to ground and two wires to signal.
Thanks,
