What kind of cable do I need


I have a panasonic DMB-PD35 blue ray player and want to know what kind of cable to get to connect to a dac. It has a LAN output.

Pal you have something I've not seen on an audio component.
A "LAN" connector is typically an RJ-45 8-pin style which is normally a balanced connection. You'll need to get the pinout from the manufacturer first. Then you may need to build your own cable. Does your DAC have a balanced input is the next thing you need to know, and what's the connector type? A Cannon plug (a.k.a XLR) uses pins 2 and 3 I believe for a balanced input.
