Thanks. I see it involves a purchase directly from China… no European seller offers a similar cable?

Not that I am aware of

Maybe MCRU from UK can provide it. I will ask.
But what am I looking for in the way of specifications on a hdmi cable to connect the ET-3 to the Denafrips Pontus II dac?
I appreciate the help

I have an ET3 and a Pontus II 12th ed. I could try a standard HDMI cable and see what happens ?

Tried that out for you, works no problem. Pontus II lights correspond to ET3 SRC settings exactly for both PCM and DSD. Also listened to a track to be certain, sounds just great. So a standard HDMI cable that I previously used for a 4K bluray player connection and purchased from Amazon UK works just fine. The ET3 settings were left at default for I2S and DSD mode was Native DSD. Now I haven't checked whether left right channels are correct for both PCM and DSD but it sounds just fine to my ears.

Great to know, thanks
