I bought some of the Amazon Basic Cables (I think that's what they are called) for interconnects. Seem to be decent construction/good value.
Ditto, I have found their HDMI cables to be cheap and of good quality.

If the volume control turns too far to the right, Amazon will ban it. So you better get it while you can.
It is certainly a lot cheaper. And it has a bit more power.so... is this better than the psaudio sprout 100?!
Not sure what the hole is for. Maybe it is for a remote control but none was provided.
It's actually a headphone jack
Well duh!
I just packed the bloody thing for the second time.I guess you now will test the headphone jack performance.
Hey Amir, sorry that it’s not related to this thread, but I think I found another way to keep you busy:I just packed the bloody thing for the second time.
eye pattern of the dCS Rossini SACD transport's single AES/EBU output, plotted over one "unit cycle" as it fed the Audio Precision a 16-bit AES/EBU datastream comprising the Miller/Dunn J-Test Signal for 60 seconds.
To make this a worst-case situation, the AES/EBU link was a 45' length of Canare 110-ohm balanced interconnect, which results in a somewhat lengthened risetime compared with the Audio Precision's own AES/EBU output using the same 45' datalink.
My new Audio Precision analyzer is better than the old series JA uses and I used to have in almost every regard but this! While my old analyzer could generate the eye pattern, the new one cannot. While I had the old analyzer, I measured such in some of my reviews: https://www.audiosciencereview.com/...-s-pdif-digital-audio-filter.2189/#post-59445Hey Amir, sorry that it’s not related to this thread, but I think I found another way to keep you busy:

“Eye” measurements of a $23,500 CD/SACD transport with a $7500 clock.
If I say pretty please, could you try to duplicate this with the digital out of a “cheap” CD player/transport (or even a DVD/Blu-ray player)?
JA’s test methodology:
I'm loading the Link amp almost daily, but the price kept appearing at $600 every time. I guess it will be at $300 on special sale dates. At $600, there are better alternatives.
Your link is the Sonos amp.
Amazon Link Amp is this one:

Sorry mi-fu, youu are right. I deleted my posts to avoid confusions (mostly by me)
I believe its digital out is limited to 24/96 which may/may not be an issue for you.@amirm or has anyone looked into this just using as a streamer with digital out going into one of the decent DACs? In other words just getting an Echo Link to be used as a streamer with digital out.
Correct, I wouldn't mind not having 192 kHzI believe its digital out is limited to 24/96 which may/may not be an issue for you.
