ADVANCED NOTES
Cabling
Proper Digital Audio cables should be used for SPDIF and AES/EBU connections. Avoid
using standard analog audio cables for digital signals. Even though they may look the
same, they are not designed for digital audio and performance will be compromised.
For digital connections, please use:
• AES/EBU - use 110 Ω shielded twisted-pair digital cables.
• S/PDIF - use 75 Ω coaxial (video) cables.
• WC uses 75 Ω BNC cables. Do not exceed 6 meters in length.
For analog connections, please use:
• Standard high quality cables with XLR connectors.
• Standard high quality cables with TRS connectors.
Ground Loop Hum and Noise
The design of Pure2 minimizes the possibility of ground loop hum and noise. However, we
recommend the use of short cables and balanced connections for all the audio signals of
your system. All power cables of the system should be connected to a dedicated outlet
box or power conditioner unit to avoid ground current noise affecting the audio signal path.
It's also advisable to keep signal and power cables separate.
