Why didn't you use use the VH Audio AES/EBU cable?ES/EBU
Hi,
Before entering the Devialet world I had the 'regular' 75 ohm cable between drive and dac. Then initially with Devialet I used the RCA-RCA set up and then later trying the AES/EBU input on the companion, it was a quick fix. After some thinking, taking the impression from forum contributions and talking to Devialet (Thierry) I came to the conclusion that the input side ie AES/EBU and its transformer would take care of business independent if using a 75 or 110 ohm cable and due to that the signal is 75 ohm (probably not perfect as it is a RCA female) I kept the 75 ohm approach.
On my Unitiserve I use the BNC output with 75 ohm cable and then XLR into the master. This solution gave a welcome hike in performance.
If only Devialet would enable XLR-XLR...
