I would hate to post it all again but it should be in the archives still from a few years ago where I went on an Holy Grail type search of digital cables over a two year period from companies such as Siltech, Kharma, JPS, Silversmith, Marigo Labs, AZ, HT, Virtual dynamics,Synergistic Research,Purist Audio Design, NBS, and the TOP DOG....OMEGA MIKRO! In the reasonable priced catagory the VD Nite, and Harmonic tech magic One were my favorites but some friends did prefer the AZ Mc2? The soundstage hero was the Kharma Grand Reference, but it was not as fast, clean, and transparent as the Omega Mikro, which is no slouch in soundstage either.

I also found that many of the moderate cables would sound nearly as good if not AS good as many of the silly-expensive digital cables once you placed one of the old-style Bybee filters on EACH END!!! Really, w/ the Bybee filters that have the Blue Discovery Essence tails, a harmonic Tech Magic One would sound almost as good as a Kharma Grand Reference (of course that is a Kharma w/o Bybee's on each end!)
