It's a cable to transmit S/PDIF signals over copper wire, with Cinch/RCA plugs, 0.5V signalling voltage and a 75 Ohm characteristic impedance and, surprisingly, a coaxial cable layout. It's one of the two common digital cables, the other, more common one being TOSLINK (the optical digital audio cables you might know).

First let me say, $650 for a HIFI quality player is cheap.
Shanling makes some amazing players, some of them easily 10 times that price.
There are two big differences I have noticed testing out different CD players. The first is how bright there are (bright sounding vs. warm sounding), the second is the soundstage. A third would just be the noise made by the transport.
edit: not gonna say $100 is cheap for a hamburger, but I'd still like to try it!!!Last edited by Mehen; 23 June 2006, 15:53.Q9450 + TRUE, G.Skill 2x2GB DDR2, GTX 560, ASUS X48, 1TB WD Black, Windows 7 64-bit, LG M2762D-PM 27" + 17" LG 1752TX, Corsair HX620, Antec P182, Logitech G5 (Blue)

I know TOSLINK. So which one is better? I am thinking the optical one, because there is no resistance/noise/etc. ?
But then again, what do I know. I used to sticky tape extenion cables on the speaker wires for my Hifi system

According to my dad, a lot of people prefer the rca/coax over the optical, something to do with jitter.Q9450 + TRUE, G.Skill 2x2GB DDR2, GTX 560, ASUS X48, 1TB WD Black, Windows 7 64-bit, LG M2762D-PM 27" + 17" LG 1752TX, Corsair HX620, Antec P182, Logitech G5 (Blue)
