ANA[DIA]LOG | Audiophile HDMI-I2S OCC copper cables at incredible price! @anadialog | Uploaded March 2022 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
In this video I recommend a pair of audiophile quality HDMI OCC copper cables with 24K gold conductors to use to connect your high-res source or CD player/transport to your DAC via the I2S protocol...at a very good price!

We often hear the statement that digital cables can’t possibly make a difference in audio “because they are only sending ones and zeroes”. Dissecting that assertion, we can see a logical fallacy: a number is an abstraction and cannot be “sent”, but something that represents it can.
Do to high skepticism and lack of knowledge on digital signal transmission, in particular HDMI, I am here adding some links to interesting and useful articles that demonstrate how digital signals, including those of HDMI, undergo several problems. Clearly these problems are inferior than analog cables, but still present. Everybody seems to forget that the digital signals go through analog conductors which are subject to several issues, for example frequency dependent cable attenuation (very long cables), signal reflections, phase distortion, noise introduction etc.:
