DH Labs D-75 Digital Cable

Andre Marc has posted a review of the DH Labs D-75digital cable ($75-100) at Audio Video Revolution. His conclusions:

The beautifully built, wonderful-sounding, and reasonably priced DH Labs digital cable products are an absolute no brainer way to upgrade your digital set up. As I said above, DH Labs really puts the onus on some of their competitors to justify their pricing. I found all three cables to be superb, and they will be a permanent part of my set up going forward.

Value is a concept that has made a roaring comeback recently, and many audio companies who have ignored that premise have suffered the consequences. From DH Labs own website: “The audio industry today is about maximum profit margins and is thus full of questions and problems regarding "point-of-origin." As engineers and life-long audiophiles, we prefer to take the high-road, with an emphasis on sourcing materials and manufacturing in the USA. While this philosophy certainly lowers our margins, it also allows us to make use of cutting edge technologies, far superior materials & more stringent manufacturing specifications.”

DH Labs has chosen to take the longer view, and since 1992 has been making great cables that compete with the more exotic brands that often rely on clever space ads, marketing catch phrases, and flashy packaging. While others are free to pursue sex appeal and pay through the nose, I will stick with companies like DH Labs and others who design their products based on proven engineering principals. The D-75 and Deluxe Toslink digital cables are worth every penny and more. Highly recommended without reservation.
