Bill - I received a reply from KLEI that contained the following explanation..- The overall impedance of a "digital path" (e.g. the digital devices + the cable + the connectors) is determined by whichever of those individual components has the low...

DIGITAL HIGH-RES AUDIO SYSTEM -HELP PLEASE
Tim - it's your preference - only you can define a structure that suits your needs.I merely pointed out apple's structure as an example. It happens to work for meTo get to other structures of organizing - like sample size, composer and genre you m...

Bif - no such thing as a dumb question.International Annealed Copper Standard:It’s a measure of the conductivity of various metals relative to “Pure Copper” having a rating of 100%, a standard developed for copper wire producers. For Complete Defi...

I asked KLE InnovationsCould the Copper Harmony be used for Digital ICs (interconnects)? Is impedance an issue? · Steve, the Copper®Harmony and Silver®Harmony will both be excellent for Analogue and Digital cables - the Harmony plugs are very line...

From what I understand - to guarantee true 75 ohm cables you should use a BNC connector I believe.I've used standard rca's without a problem on cable designated as "digital" and they worked very well."The NAME" from Van den Hul is sold as an analo...
