Music Hall uses an advanced asynchronous re-clocking and anti-jitter circuit to ensure the best sound possible.

The Black Knight Digital Cable, from Creative Cable Concepts, the maker of the World-Class Green Hornet and Silver Bullet digital cables, has really outdone themselves with their brand-new digital cable. The Black Knight is a simple, pure copper cable that maintains true 75 Ohm impedance from tip-to-tip! What does this mean for sound quality? When your digital cable’s internal impedance does not exactly match the required standard of 75-Ohms, you get what’s called “reflection” inside the cable. The signal keeps bouncing back and forth inside, thus smearing the digital signal and making it more difficult for your DAC to interpret the digital files. The Black Knight, with its dead-on internal impedance lets the signal flow through perfectly, allowing your DAC to “read” the bits as they were meant to be converted in the analog domain. Simply… one of the best values in coaxial digital cables! 100% Money Back Guaranteed!
