Romy, I also just integrated a new DAC and transport.  I tried an Acoustic Revive OCC single signal wire co-ax, and it is OK, providing about what I would expect in the way of "harmonics" from digital, but very good pitch, etc.   I wanted to try a cable without strands, twists, etc., and it is fairly coherent, minimal filtering and little to nothing added.  I may as an intellectual exercise swap the stock connectors with some NextGens, although at this point I am in no hurry to do so.  This cable is not dirt cheap, but not expensive, either, if you can find it.  I understand it is +/- popular with the "qualiity" Asian studios, which is not so much a selling point as a source guide.  In any case, the digital now bears some resemblance to the analog, and I will be posting on that, anon, but not talking about the cable.

The Belden satellite cable is nice, but I think you are more limited with 110 Ohms.  How about 75 + a resistor?

Best,
Paul S
