Cable for Airport

[Trefor Patten]

No, not a telegram for someone about to jump on a plane, but an interconnect for my Airport Express to my Primare all-in-one. At the moment I am using a straight from the box white cable which came from a Kensington  iPod dock bought from Richer Sounds.  I have to say that I am not at all displeased with the sound, but feel I could do better.  OK so anyone out there have the definitive answer? I need a 3.5mm jack to two phonos or perhaps I should get a Dacmagic offboard DAC to take the USB output or digital (optical). Any thoughts fellow forumeers?

A DAC, streaming lossless files, will kick the butt of anything the onboard CD player can muster.

But in the meantime, I bang on about bog standard Belkin, where others swear by iChord.
