RE: Master/slave link - GuillaumeB - 31-Mar-2015 I must say I haven't heard of a single bad review of the Audioprana RCA/AES hybrid cable... seems like a real winner for the dual mono set up. And a great price too! Would be great if we could get some more detailed listening notes from users out there. Guillaume RE: Master/slave link - Mikeeo - 31-Mar-2015 G et al, I would say that connecting the mono units by the RCA-XLR set up is a winner compared to the RCA-RCA. As my own findings together with others with Audioprana and other cables seem to support this. My own experience from my diy RCA-XLR cable has been positive and now of late when running a construction from Cabledyne with even less latency which was a step to bring me back in stereo mode D200, channel coherence that is. As I said, using the AES/EBU input on the companion is the main winner, then finding the right cable to reduce latency will of course complete everything. More tests and experiences please! /Mike Master/slave link - amabrok - 01-Apr-2015 (31-Mar-2015, 19:29)miro Wrote:(31-Mar-2015, 07:27)amabrok Wrote: Finally had time to plug in the Audioprana RCA to XLR silver cable in my D400 and I'm really impressed! Sound is cleaner and more relaxed and there is less Lag between the master and slave units. My preliminary impression is yes.

Sound is cleaner and more relaxed and there is less Lag between the master and slave units. And no I did not attempt to upgrade to the Dec 23, 2014 firmware version. So my comparison is apples to apples. Actually I do not trust to do any firmware upgrade now considering all the swarming bugs! I know the current issues that I currently have and I have kind of adapted with them.

Sound is cleaner and more relaxed and there is less Lag between the master and slave units. What bugs? There was a significant improvement in synchronization between master and slave units after I updated the firmware on both with the Dec 23, 2014 version. So, if you are using the previous version, results are definitely suboptimal, and are not meaningful.

Sound is cleaner and more relaxed and there is less Lag between the master and slave units. So do you strongly recommend upgrading to Dec 23, 2014 firmware? And on top of the observed better synchronization between master and slave did you notice any additional stability for the online configurator?

I do not know how to notice improved stability. There were no negative side effects. Only improved synchronization between master and slave, and stronger, more coherent stereo sound.
