I don't even want to buy one.

The very fact that 8 channels of audio have to terminate into one connection doesn't leave much scope for screening of the individual channels so I know I'm probably whistling in the wind here anyway.

The cable I've linked to for instance shows how spartan the screening is at the RCA ends; would you buy stereo ICs of this construction and be happy you'd be getting the best out of your Revel speakers? :0)

Best Regards,

How can you tell anything about the quality of the screening? By the diameter? Na. There are many high quality, well-screened RCA cables that are not as thick as a python. For example, I have some really excellent ones from Crystal Cable and Stereovox that are no thicker than the ones that appear in the picture.

  Do both those manufacturers not use silver in their premium ICs?

    I don't pay attention to such things unless I am writing about them. ;-)
