And don't you think that the trouble with some files not able to be read (192/24 as mentioned) is due to electrical tension and impedance because of this 75/100 difference ?

As I can only speak of my system it plays any files that it is capable of without any problem and always have with the RCA to XLR cable that I have from Cabledyne.
I cant find the answer from Devialet about the XLR input but they described how it was connected inside and why it worked without the transformer.
There is a 36 page thread about this here on the forum and the answer can be in there somewere

I order a Canare specific custom one to test. Will let you know the result. Thanks for your feedback.

I had the Chord Epic digital coax cable as Master/Slave link and found it to be spectacular. It worked very well with my AudioQuest Vodka Cat7 cable. I have a 24/192 and LP recording of Tea for the Tillerman. I have played the LP many times but could never pinpoint the original source material (analogue or digital). Played the 24/192 and could not believe that I could hear that the recording was sourced straight from an analogue master tape. Essentially the 24/192 sounded more analogue than the LP. Also the 24/192 recording sounded like a 70's recording devoid of any digital manipulation. The recording not only conveyed the musical detail but also the environment it was recorded in. It was a crazy experience. I recently got rid of the Chord Epic and have regretted it since, thankfully its only £400 so its not an irreversible decision.

Which adapted plug on this Chord ?

It was an RCA-RCA.

Mad Scientist said that the problem with their cable not playing high-res was from too high electrical resistance.

SOMMERCABLE CARBOKAB 225 Câble AES/EBU 110 Ohm blindé OFC 2x0.25mm² Ø 7.6mm
ELECAUDIO RC-901 RCA Rouge Isolé PTFE Ø 9.2mm
FURUTECH FP-701M (G) Connecteur XLR Mâle Plaqué Or Ø 9mm
this is the cable ordered for 28,80 euros.
If it sounds better than your 300€ and more cables you will be devastated

Trying look for your recommendations. Not good with soldering, can you recommend a retailer that would make the cable. Thanks.
RE: Master/Slave Link Summary - jfp - 08-Jul-2016
I will get the cable by Monday. Order from here http://www.audiophonics.fr
