I'm using the following cable; HMS Sestetto MK-III Digitalkabel 110 Ohm. I've my Slim Devices Transporter connected to my D400. HMS are a German cable specialist, based in Leverkusen.
Unfortunately their website has been "under construction" for years now, but often the owner will personally help with any questions you might have. Also 'Die Nadel' in Dormagen are an excellent shop for all types of HiFi goodies! Here is a link to the above mentioned cable; https://www.dienadel.de/hms-sestetto-mk-...-353628637
Pro 440, B&W 804D, HMS In Concerto Speaker cables, Audioquest Jitterbug & Cinnamon USB, 2018 Mac Mini with 8Gb RAM, Furutech G320 Power cable, Audirvana Studio, 4 x 2TB SSD External Drives

The Acrolink looks like a really solid cable, I like the connectors' looks! Seems to be rather available in Japan than Europe, I might be wrong, haven't searched more, since I got the DH Labs. Thanks anyway Sharone!

Btw Antoine, just got home and found a note in my mailbox that my neighbour received the cable.
That was one smooth transaction, thanks again! Recommended trader, real pleasure :-)

The best of this little query is how much one can learn what else is on the market. Endless options, companies I would have never heard of.


Cheers,
Ralf

Another fan of Cabledyne Vanguard Silver RCA-XLR Digital Interconnect (1.0M 75Ohms as recommended on the website). Excellent build quality, at a very good price. But the amazing part comes when you here the detail this cable brings out in your music. Even listening at low volumes you don't miss anything (440 Pro owner here). Vocals are locked dead center and no L-R channel imbalance, so no need for any apprehension going with the XLR connection on companion. But only issue is i am no longer able to use my trigger cable as that option is no longer available in the configurator.
