Blue Heaven Digital Interconnect
The safe transfer of digital data streams depends on achieving accurate impedance within the transmission chain. The S/PDIF transmission standard dictates a 75 Ohm co-axial lead, but it is surprising how few cables meet that specification.
The Blue Heaven Digital Interconnect is a true 75 Ohm conductor. Employing a Micro Mono-Filament, co-axial construction. This advanced topology allows us to achieve superior electrical performance and geometrical accuracy, irrespective of cable length. The Blue Heaven Digital Interconnect ensures high-speed, low-loss characteristics and, due to its BNC termination, the 75 Ohm standard is maintained, even across the connectors. Each BNC connector is supplied with a gold-plated RCA adaptor, keeping the cable consistent in performance across any combination of co-axial inputs or outputs. To accommodate even more applications, this cable is also available in a BNC to 3.5mm mono mini configuration.
Lengths over 2m available: £35 per additional 1/2 meter

Thanks to such precise and advanced engineering, listeners are able to enjoy both the subtle nuances and explosive dynamics captured in a recording that would otherwise be lost in transmission.
Our extensive Blue Heaven range allows consumers to maintain a consistent sonic signature and design philosophy throughout an entire system. Whether you are seeking audio, video, personal or portable cables, Blue Heaven has the solution. Only Blue Heaven cables will enable you to reap this caliber of superior performance out of each one of your components at such a reasonable price point.
Digital Interconnects
It is vitally important to support your digital devices with cables that deliver the signal with the efficiency and consistency necessary to meet the demands of musical fidelity. Unfortunately, the precision and intricacy needed to produce a truly superb digital cable are out of reach for most cable manufacturers. Poor impedance matching has a dramatic impact on the accuracy with which the signal is passed from one electronic device to another. Nordost’s digital interconnects, on the other hand, implement the most advanced, proprietary technology and revolutionary techniques, ensuring the impedance matching necessary for S/PDIF and AES/EBU leads, guaranteeing the tight tolerance of characteristic impedance necessary to ensure greater musical detail, virtually unimpeded by timing errors or destructive jitter.
