220 Expert AES EBU digital input

[douglas]

Hi. I plan to connect a CD player with a digital XLR output to my Expert Pro, to spin the occasional CD. Anything that I need to be aware of.  I assume a standard 75ohm AES / EBU cable is fine. Kind regards

There are Two ways to connect your CD player to your 220-Pro and use the CD player as a transport whilst the internal DAC of the Devialet does the D-A conversion.

1. Using the Coaxial S/PDIF RCA connector from your CD player's digital output - -> to the Devialet Digital RCA input and a 75 ohms digital RCA-RCA cable.
2. Using the AES/EBU XLR output from your CD player's digital output (if you have a XLR digital output in your CD player) to the AES/EBU Digital input of your Devialet using a 110 ohms AES/EBU XLR-XLR cable.

Note: AES/EBU XLR will sound superior to digital S/PDIF RCA.

Thank you very much for confirming. I was not sure if it should be 110 ohms for the AES/EBU XLR-XLR.
