For a run that long you'd really be well served to run it balanced. A regular XLR->RCA adapter at one end defeats this. So while not what you want to hear, if you really need to run that long you need electronics which accept balanced as well. One of the great virtues of true balanced connection is that long low level cable runs work well with a lower noise floor than thru RCA.
30 foot long Balanced Cables to Balanced/RCA Adapters into Amp's Stereo RCA inputs?
I just bought Blu-Ray player: Oppo BDP-105, arrives in a few days.
Primarily for it's 2 channel audio quality.
It just occurred to me, I could use all of it's audio, video, future streaming features if I:
1. Locate it in the small Home Theater system
2. HDMI to AVR of Home Theater, and
3. Balanced Outputs (audio only): 30 feet to the 2 channel amp in main music system (far end of the same room), use balanced/rca adapters at the amps rca in jacks.
then I could always access/see the menu for audio setup, and use all of it's capabilities
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
I've never used Balanced Cables.
Advice? Concerns? Avoid doing this!!!
I could buy 50 ft cable for more slack both ends: any reason to keep it to 30 ft?
thanks for any help,
Elliott
