    Check with Ben62670! He makes some really great sounding silver ICs.

    Everyone here who've used them, including myself, will all agree. I used them to replace a couple of $340+/meter silver interconnects and couldn't be happier.

    These seem to be recommended a lot over on Audio Circle. $35 for a 1m pair

    The picture says Silver Digital 75 ohms - are those going to work as standard RCA cables?

    75 ohm is for digital or subwoofer connections only.

    Not exactly, video and coax digital require 75 ohm for impedance matching and the wide bandwidth but not subwoofer. All my BlueJeans cables (digital and audio) are made from the same Belden cables. So, the digital cable can be used as regular audio IC's. For those reading in this thread are likely believe cables sound different, so these silver digital cables are likely yet another different sounding IC's. IMHO, only our own ears can tell they are as good as any other IC's that we are using today.

    Last I checked 75ohm was used for analog audio as well, with the exception of XLRs.

    Case in point, Signal Cable Analog Twos which are highly recommended on this forum uses Belden 89259 wire. Belden 89259 is 75 ohm cable, it works great for digital and analog audio use.
