75R? Do you mean 75 Ohm, or 75 Ohm right angle? 1) RCA connectors are used for SPDIF and composite or component video in just about all consumer-grade A/V gear. I would expect at least the high-end units to use something else if the RCAs didn't work. Plus, you'd be able to see visible ringing on high-quality monitors (I can easily spot a cheapo VGA cable used with a computer monitor).
2) It seems that there are several manufacturers of "75 Ohm" RCA connectors (Canare, et al) who would be highly vulnerable to false advertising suits if their product did not meet their published specifications. 3) The closer an impedance anomaly is to the sender or receiver, the less effect it will have. Since the RCA connector is generally placed very close to the sending or receiving circuit, that may provide the answer to #1, but not to #2. -- John Stimson ------------------------------------------------------------------------ John Stimson's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=218 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=21415 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
