Default Q: How long can I run a digital line?

To view it from the other perspective, someone who can solder up their own
cables isn't going to come to an audio group and ask a newbie question about
cables - they're just going to go and get on with making one.


Hi-fi users, who have been brainwashed into believing in "magic"
interconnects, may need reminding that standard components and
learning a simple skill is an excellent alternative.

Second, any old piece of crap phono leed will do.

For short lengths. and it really *ought* to be 75 ohm, too. That
said, 6m probably counts as short.


No - For any length!


What a load of ****. Do you know what an "ohm" is?


I suspect you think it's a simple measurement of resistance. Not so,
with cables carrying high-frequency signals.
