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.

Yup. But you've got to understand the thinking. It's conceivable that
really poor (high capacitance) or extra long interconnects can make a
difference to an analogue signal - especially if high impedance valve
equipment is used.

So for those who don't *want* to understand any theory, *all*
interconnects can make a difference. That the signal is digital makes no
difference to this thinking at all.


My favourite bit is when WhatHifi etc claim a CD transport to be "working
very hard". Yeah, right, that's why a £15 pc cd rom drive can read with
*ZERO* error at 30-50 times that speed!
