I am the proud owner of the Denafrips Terminator Plus DAC which I dearly love. I am interested in purchasing the Denafrips Hermes DDC following positive reviews from different audiophile forums. The price of the Hermes is reasonable and looking into buying two coaxial clock cables and using an HDMI cable for the I2S input. However, price for these cables from reputable cable manufacturer exceeds the price of the Hermes. I know from experience that cables (power, interconnects, speaker) do make a difference. However, I do not have any experience with clock cables. My game plan is to purchase a top/near top of line Wireworld HDMI cable and go on a relatively low budget for the clock cables.
I am seeking advice from Terminator Plus/Denafrips DDC owners who have experienced different clock/HDMI cables to chime in, and validate if my plan makes sense. Please share where I should put top quality, HDMI or clock, or both?
