More Newbie Balanced Cable Help
Hi:
I'm anxiously awaiting the arrival of a VAC Phi 30/30 amp, that will temporarily be used with my Audible Illusions Mod 3A pre. I will need to purchase a cable to run from the pre to the amp, and will most likely used balanced. Is there some kind of convention where the XLR connectors on the preamp end of the cable are always female or male and vice-versa for the amp end? When I see used cables on Audiogon I've ever seen this addressed.
If there is a standard, what type of RCA to XLR adapter would I need for my current preamp, i.e. male RCA to female XLR, for example?
