Title: ADC 20...has a coax out?
Post by: Sterling on October 22, 2003, 02:39:24 PM

Does this unit have a digital out that I could convert with my CO2 into optical? That is till I get a dat (slowly fella's...slowly ;)) I found a used one so I can finally start my rig...woo hoo!  :afro:

Go to Radio Shack and get the gold-plated BNC to coaxial adaptor.  It costs about $5.  You will screw the BNC end onto the connector on the front of the unit and plug in your digital RCA cable to it.

Just to be sure is it an acd-20 or an ad-20?

So I just need the adaptor and then its a COAX not an RCA right? And yes it is the G.P. ADC-20 not the zefiro inbox or AD20. I found a used one for 260 with battery pack and recharger....is that good? Thanks

Wait just a minute...DMIC20 and ADC20? I think I fucked something up....man I must look like a total jack ass but I'm sure its a DMIC20 that I'm looking at. Oh shit I'm sorry guys.....I'm not worthy ??? ??? ???

dmic and adc20 both have the same outputs... it is a bnc connector, get the adapter Jamie recommended and you'll be fine

Also be aware that the Dmic is a PRE and AD and the adc is JUST an AD.  If it's a dmic for $260 you got a good deal. :)

The digital coaxial cable you need has RCA connectors on the end.  Buy this also at Radio Shack; I have heard good things about their digital coaxial cables.

If you get a dmic-20 you should look into getting the mod for $100 of do it yourself(its not hard). It allows you to adjust the levels and not use those stupid dip switches. This thing sounds great with oktavas. I run that combo for a couple of weeks
