Hi, Thanks again for your very useful advices.
I have ordered the Belden/Canare cables + recomended analog RCA from Blue Jeans and will try to improve the digital out of SBT following your recommendations. About the analog instability, what's annoying for me is that I am using the analog as reference point to measure the quality improvement of the digital. What I noticed yesterday is that the difference btw digital/analog is very audible with more demanding titles, like the choirs of Mozart's Requiem for instance. With piano (Nocturnes of Chopin) or violin chamber ensembles (Vivaldi), this is much less perceptible, probably because there is less "cross interference" between instruments what makes it less sensitive to fuzzyness. That's what makes the listening so difficult: objectivate SQ based on subjective perception. IMO, interferences are not audible on every kind of music. Filtering of AC input was also something I was thinking about. The lower cost approach is a good tip and I think I will also give it a try.
