SPDIF to AES/EBU - the proper way?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I'm trying to figure out how to hook up an SPDIF output to the AES\EBU input on the Berry DCX2496.

I know it can be done with a straight bodge cable RCA to XLR.

If I understand right, the "proper" way to do it is to match the impedances (SPDIF is 75 ohm, AES is 110).

So I think what I need is a NADITBNC-M, a 75 ohm RCA to BNC cable and a 110 ohm XLR cable. Right?
