About the Lightning 15
The Cardas Audio Lightning 15 is a high-performance digital coaxial cable optimized for SPDIF, AES/EBU, and other digital audio connections using RCA or BNC terminations. It employs a 15.5 AWG conductor in a coaxial geometry, delivering fast, detailed, dynamic, and accurate signal transmission. Originally retailed around $600 for a 1.5m length, it has been discontinued and replaced by the Clear Digital SPDIF Coax as Cardas' flagship digital coax cable. Used examples in various lengths (0.5m to 4.4m) are available in excellent condition on secondary markets.
