Digital connections
The digital connections should be made with high-quality 75Ω
screened cable. Suitable cables are available from Meridian. We
do not recommend using audio cables, which do not have
adequate shielding or the correct impedance, or cables intended
for UHF applications, as these do not provide adequate
shielding in the 1–30MHz region.
Optical connections should be made using a suitable optical
fibre supplied by your dealer.
