Today I re-affirmed my status as a clumsy so and so, by treading on my 5m Chord Optichord whilst in the process of plugging it into my PCs sound card, after changing cases. Now my DAC will not lock onto any signal sent down the cable :( either from the PC or using the optical out on the CD Player. I'm presuming I've killed the cable, although theres still light coming out the other end (but not as brightly) This is £65 gone down the toilet as well I fear....whilst Chord might have a 10 year warranty on their cables, since I broke it its not covered, and i doubt they can repair an optical cable so their repair/retermination service is of no use. So can anyone recommend a decent, fairly sturdy brand of optical cable to replace the one I've broken? I'd rather not spend £65, I expect I can get something cheaper, especially given Chords infamy for simply reterminating and rebranding cheaper cables. This ust about rounds of a really crappy week..I've had my computer break, last Thursday I was almost issued with a court injunction and a CCJ, this morning the hot tap in the bath got jammed fully open and I had to get a plumber to come and sort it out (new tap time now!) :SLEEP:
