AES/EBU S/PDIF

I run an AES/EBU into my pre-amp. Then I use an rca digital out to my burner. Most cd players will have an rca out along with the aes/ebu out. Both my transports do. Hope this helps. I have also used an optical loop from the pre to the burner with good results.

For Genesis168 - AES/EBU is actually 5V not 3.5V and there is a margin of error of +/- 20% for the 110ohm AES connection and the S/PDIF allows +/- 5% margin of error.

P.S. The transport ONLY has AES/EBU, the burner has ONLY RCA S/PIDF. Anybody who has tried this before please let me know what the results are, it would be much appreciated.

you can try an upsampler like the Assemblage D2D-1
www.partsconnection.on.ca upsamples plus has inputs for RCA and can automatically switch to AES/EBU out
read the imfo on their site...
their unit comes also with a bnc to rca adaptor. about $499.

Stereonuts has a good oint, but you don't need to go to that extreme. There are a few good anti-jitter devices, such as the Monarchy DIP, that sell for a lot less. You could probably find a non 24/96 DIP for $100 or so. Some of the other anit-jitter devices probably have similar features.

According to my ML manual, AES/EBU 110ohm has an output of 3.5 volts. How are you sure that AES is 5 volts???

I am open to suggestions......Just trying to help.
