Basically, I want to use the 75ohm coaxial digital outputs on a G61/G68 processor and convert them to a 110ohm AES/EBU compatible signal. Obviously the cables and connectors are different but the real problem is the impedance difference.
The cable runs would be fairly short, maybe 3-5 meters.
Hi Flea,
unless it was mentioned already, all Genelec DSP monitors of the 82xx series accept 75 Ohm SPDIF connections. As you are running very short cables, all you need is to solder a Neutrik XLR plug to a good 75 Ohm cable and a good RCA plug and you can easily go 5 meters. We had 8 to 10 meters in our 5x Genelec DSP setup with a Meridian 565 and 561. 75 Ohm cables often just do not bend so nice around corners ;-) From the master Genelec to the slave Genelec you can then use 110 Ohm XLR to XLR wires. Internally anything higher than 48Khz is....ney, let us better skip that part.
