AES/EBU S/PDIF NO! AES/EBU is 110ohms and SPDIF RCA is 75 ohms. The AES/EBU output is 3.5v and RCA is 0.5v.....HOW CAN THAT BE POSSIBLE?????? | |
Want to use RCA connections w/ML amp. Use a short cable and put into the 2 recommended holes of the XLR connector. I think it is #2 and #3 hole. | |
Digital Rules Try listening to any good analog source and you'll know digital is so, so. Analog always sounds more ORGANIC/REAL. | |
Technics SH-AC500D - Where to buy??? Unit has been discontinued. Try getting a new old stock from dealer or buy used. | |

To Preamp or not to Preamp, that is my q Hin Levinson 39 has a preamp section built in it. That's OK to connect to a power amp. 99% of other CD players like the Denon used here does not have one built in.To use a regular CDP as a drive for power amps are not appropriate. Sometimes gettin... | |
To Preamp or not to Preamp, that is my q Preamp! It acts like a buffer stage to drive your cables. The output impedence on a preamp is far lower than a CD player. That's why you need one. | |
