RCA Out To AES/EBU In To DAC


Hello everyone,

My digital source has only RCA coaxial out and the DAC has only AES/EBU in. I attempted to use an XLR male to RCA female adapter, and although it works, a "sizzling" interference occurs continuously while the data is being transferred to the DAC. When the data stream is paused, the sizzling sound stops. Any suggestions on how I can solve this problem?

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Regards,

Dennis

Yes, get the Monarchy DIP, not only does it solve your connection problem, but also reduces jitter... quite noticable improvement. You can find them used here on Audiogon ranging from $100-200 depending on type.
