Confused about adapter for RCA to BNC

@stuartk confirm the specs on your bnc cable to make sure it is 75ohm before you buy adapters 

I’d rather use AES from transport to DAC or a proper 75ohm coax cable and not introduce any adapters unless you have a fancy and expensive bnc cable that you can’t part with. I wouldn’t add variables such as adapters to compromise the results.

Interesting. Strange choice by the dac manufacturer 

Ah I missed that you damaged the AES output in your Jays. Guess adapter is the only option now

@stuartk hope you recovered from those shots! That Synergistic cable should be very nice. I would evaluate with it. Sorry to hear the adapter doesn’t fit. But I’m not sure how it can possibly be too big. Does it not make the connection? Can you order an adapter from amazon just to evaluate the DAC?

Another option is to order a basic AES cable just to get a feel for the sound.

And the cardas adapter fits just fine on the rca outs of this dac? Interesting to try it just to check.
If the new adapter isn’t a tight fit I would reach out to the manufacturer and confirm i looked at a few pictures and I see different connectors are used for coax in and it’s not consistent from dac to dac…this is typical with boutique manufacturers as they would use whatever is available  I’m not excluding the possibility for that being the case even with the parts used inside the chassis as well. 

@stuartk no big deal. I know you wouldn’t be using it on rca outs but thought to have an additional data point to determine the culprit…is it the Mojo rca jack or the cardas adapter that is the culprit. 
 

You don’t want to give up on your Mojo DAC and end up like Austin Powers….

@stuartk great news! Hopefully the DAC meets your expectations!
