What is the difference between....

Thanks for the responses...this then begs the question. Between the preamp and amp is there any difference if I use xlr ended digital cables or analog from the same manufacturer?

Tx again.

You can use digital cables in place of analog cables....the cost could be a factor?

Let your ear be the guide.

OK. Digital cables have defined impedances (coax 75ohms; xlr 600ohms). Analog interconnects are not so defined. As a result, almost all digital cables will handle analog fine. Some analog cables will not work for digital (but most will).

THANKS KAL,

I was just noticing that digital with xlr for some manufacturers is cheaper for my connection from preamp to amp via XLR. I will use analog to be sure.

I know that my sub requires a 75 ohm impedance, I guess this is why they recommended digital coax for the LFE connection.

Thanks again,
