You won't get higher output from the CDP with an XLR-RCA adapter than the RCA-RCA. The adapter takes the non-inverting pin of the XLR out and puts it to the center pin of the RCA, which is the same connection made internally in the CDP to the RCA output. The output impedance will be the same.
CD player IC XLR--- RCA
Which one would you select for my CEC TL 51Z MKII CD player ?
Unfortunately the preamp is RCA input only, therefore with XLR I will be limited in using the XLR---->RCA cable I custom made. (based on VDH D102 MKIII Hybrid)
Not sure that is only a voltage deal. Of course higher gain should be better but maybe I am underestimating other cable matchings like Impedance or other stuff.
Can you pls comment ?
Tks
