Something like this offers a simpler alternative: I have a Neutrik and a Canare here. The Neutrik is a NADITBNC-MX, the Canare a BCJ-XP-TRC. I used these to connect a Squeezebox Touch to the AES/EBU input of the D-Premier/250. The Neutrik is by far the most neutral sounding of the two. I used this cable http://www.l-com.com/audio-video-rg179-coaxial-cable-bnc-male-male-15-ft between Touch and transformer (cut it and soldered a RCA plug). I also tried a 1m DH Labs D-110 cable between the transformer and amplifier. Worked very well. RE: DIY wiring of RCA-to-XLR umbilical cable - thumb5 - 11-Feb-2017 My thinking was that if you're going to drive quite long cables, then a passive solution (transformer) might not give enough oomph to keep the signals looking clean at the far end. All in favour of a cheap solution if it works, though! RE: DIY wiring of RCA-to-XLR umbilical cable - Yaduvent - 21-Feb-2017 (10-Feb-2017, 20:41)rafal123 Wrote: Still no luck. I'm using a 3.5m long RCA-RCA shielded Vovox cable between my 1000PRO Master/Companion and it works very well, even with 24/192 files. I just added a 3m cheap cooper tube for the Vovox in between the two amps. But I don't know if this really help. RE: DIY wiring of RCA-to-XLR umbilical cable - samsca - 06-Jun-2017 I tried a 4 meter rca to aes on my d440 and it worked for awhile. It has recently stopped working. No sound at all. I will try 4 meter rca to rca. Hope it works. RE: DIY wiring of RCA-to-XLR umbilical cable - K4680 - 06-Jun-2017 Hello, in order to comply with the technical data of the AES/EBU standard (mismatch, interference, etc.) it is absolutely necessary to use a cable with 2 inner conductors and a screen! Picture 2 is ok! A cable as an example: |
