S/PDIF coax to BNC


Hi there

I have a Cambridge Audio CXN V2 streamer and a Chord Dave DAC.  I have them connected by toslink but the CXN toslink output is only till 96Khz.

Cambridge audio does have the S/PDIF coax output but the Chord only has the BNC coax input.  What is the recommended way to deal with this?  I see amazon has some BNC to coax connectors but I don't know if they involve a loss in quality.

I've used a Black Cat Silverstar digital cable for many years.  It comes with BNC to & RCA adaptors that work seamlessly. A great cable at a reasonable price, with the flexibility you are looking for. 

@deone Many cable manufacturers can build RCA Coax to BNC without the use of an adapter. I am a dealer for DH Labs and Cambridge Audio, and I know the DH Labs D-750 is one example of a cable that can be built to this configuration. I'm sure there are other manufacturers that do the same.

With digital cables, I highly suggest not using adapters as any voltage and impedance fluctuations can alter the quality of the signal and sound while also being a point of entry for noise and jitter.
