digital coax to balanced aes/ebu converter?


I've got a bunch of old DAT tapes to convert to CD. Fostex burner has aes/ebu input, but DAT (old Sony) only has coax out. Is there any advantage to coax out on Sony to aes/ebu in on CR300 (or would coax to coax be just as good)? If advantage does someone sell a converter? Thanks.

If you are handy with a soldering iron and fancy a little DIY, you will find a converter circuit diagram at the following page:

Usual disclaimers apply if you try this circuit.
