1m long, solid silver, AQ's best ever digital cable.

Just about any cable ever made would carry digits over that distance.


Especially in the not so demanding world of digital HiFi. I mean, what
is cd, 150k/s? A £1 length of cat5 is good for at least 100M/s, enough
for more than 600 cd streams.


Right idea, but you're mixing bits and bytes.


Oops. Never can get used to network engineers measuring everything in bits.
Anyway, I forget which is b/B so you can get either 600/8 or 600*8 cd
streams down cat5, both of which are contsiderably more than what you're
likely to actually need, 1
