While I cannot speak to the quality or performance of either cable the cable from Sweetwater should work. The other cable from Musicdirect doesn't appear to be the correct cable - I think the picture is throwing you possibly making you think the cable indicates that the cable has a RCA on one end the XLR on the other. Not that Audioquest couldn't build a custom cable for you but I think in this instance the cable isn't a working solution and from this retailer can only be ordered in either version but not RCA/XLR version.

I think you are correct re the musicdirect cable. . I'll order the sweetwater and post my findings. Thanks!
So how do I use the configurator to tell it to link of the RCA-->AES/EBU instead of RCA-->RCA? I can't see that option.
thanks
here is what I did and remember I am anything but an expert....
I had to add in a 3rd devialet then I was able to us ethe XLR on the 2nd unit to act as a digital input for the RCA/XLR cable. Then I deleted the 3rd unit and I was OK to move forward. Its a funky way and probably not necessary but it worked for me.

I have a pair of D-Premiers and all I did in the configurator was to click on the RCA output of the Master and AES input of the Slave and it worked first time, no need to have a 3rd unit to set it up.
Give it a try and see how you go
Yes to change from RCA to RCA just click on the AES input of the second Devialet. ( The one on the bottom of the Configuration screen. )

Having read all the posts on this important subject, it appears that the best bet for me would be to get hold of a true 110Ω AES-EBU XLR-XLR terminated cable and use one of the undermentioned adapters for the RCA on the Master.

Or you can purchase one with a RCA connection on one end by request from DH Labs as I have done. ( Just another option ).
