Aes Ebu Digital Cable Review

Though there are many options i prefer an aes ebu digital cable connection between the digital hybrid devialet 1000 pro integrated amplifier.

Aes ebu digital cable review.

For system 1 below i only needed speaker cables power cords and aes ebu digital cables. Aes ebu is more suitable for longer cable runs than coaxial connections and so it s less susceptible to common mode high frequency crap that s why recording studios use aes ebu digital cables. This is my personal home system and lately it has been in a constant state of flux as it evolves. Switching to the m5 s traditional digital output section using the mogami aes ebu and belden rg59 s pdif cables the offset between these two cables is the same as i always hear it the mogami a little tighter and cleaner and the belden a little fuller and more sonorous.

The good thing is that the differences in cables are a little less clear with aes ebu than they are with spdif and even very standard cables can do very well. Audioquest cables and other audio products combine solid conductors high purity metals specialized geometries and stable dielectrics to enable naturally beautiful sounds and images. Made with a pair of neutrik plugs and a piece of van den hul 110 ohm cable it had served to connect an audio alchemy jitter reduction device to a couple. Aes ebu can be single ended balanced or optical this cable is a balanced digital interconnect.

And while aes eb cables may look like ordinary microphone cables they are very different. Aes ebu developed by the audio engineering society and the european broadcast union are the two channel digital standard for interconnecting digital devices. As the m50 2 has a balanced aes ebu output and the directstream an aes ebu input a homemade balanced digital interconnect resurrected from a decade or so earlier was pressed into service.
