Audio interconnects (digital)

Vivanco SHQ TT12
£35

Vivanco's SHQ TT12 is an improvement over its stablemate Prowire, but a good deal is really essential

Vivanco Prowire PW2TT15
£25

It might possess some poise with vocals, but this Vivanco hasn't as much assurance as we'd like

Cambridge Audio Optical
£20

Despite our high hopes, Cambridge Audio's Optical digital interconnect just couldn't cut the mustard

Belkin Silver Series
£20

The Belkin Silver Series AV500000QP delivers an enthusiastic, muscular sound but the top-end and bass are muddled

Clearer Audio Copper-line 75
£97

This is another fine cable from the Copper-line stable. It’s well worth a listen

Audioquest VDM-1
£43

Smooth operator with refined and pleasing sound, and a really well-made feel.

Ixos XHD508

Ixos XHD 508

£50

Rigid cable design that feels durable but It doesn't handle soundtracks well

Ecosse Fibre Optic T2T Superior
£45

Despite its designed rigidity, this lacks in punch, sounding laid back compared to rivals

QED Performance Optical
£35

It's well made and robust but lacks the punch of other leads

With its detail, fullness and transparency of sound, the Coral really grabs our attention
