The Lumin D1 I'm using has a BNC digital connector
The amp (Devialet) has a EBU socket dedicated to digital in
A BNC socket and plug, provided you use the correct BNC plug, is a 75 ohm device (there is a 50 ohm and 75 ohm plug with a subtle difference in construction)
The EBU socket is a 110 ohm device, but goes straight into a transformer
I bought a length of 110 ohm impedance cable from MiTech Direct in Jhb. Quite cheap
Soldered on the BNC, soldered the XLR plug
Crisper sound, batter bass. Very quiet background
I can only attribute this to better timing as previously, a BNC to RCA adaptor was being used, and 50 ohm microphone cable
