aes/ebu IS 110 ohms and coax IS 75 ohms. you can't mix and match the standards with the terminations. as to which is better: it depends on the optimization of the transport AND dac. for example, the accuphase dp-90 transport is optimized for st (at&t) optical, as is the dc-91 dac. most of the current top-line transports are optimized for aes/ebu (e.g, mbl, burmester, dcs), as are their dacs. i'm unaware which digital connection standard is best for your transport or dac. it's worth your finding out before investing in an ic.-cfb
Nordost Silver Shadow AES/EBU or LAT Int'l ?
Need input to determine which digital cable. Narrowed it down to the Nordost Silver Shadow AES/EBU or the LAT International coax (possibly AES/EBU). I have the Micromega Drive 2 transport and Kora Hermes DAC with the option of either. I hear the AES/EBU is superior to the coax. AND what about 75ohm vs the 110ohm? Thanks.
