What I did was make a foot long 110 cable with a rt angle to plug into the MMe/V3 end. Then I bought the 110>75 Canare impedance converter and plugged that into the other end of the 110 cable(which is straight) and I can feed any deck from that connection. I actually reserved that connection for myself and let the
this is my next project w/ the v3 8)

PM to DigiGal : I'd love to buy one of your cable (AES to SPDIF, XLR/F to RCA) to be able to connect my MixPre-D to a PMD 661.
Could you help me ?
Old thread but I just ran across another DIY solution for this and made up one of these cables myself for grins using parts on hand. Works clean from MixPre-D AES to Marantz PMD661 S/PDIF at 24/96.
So a simple AES to SPDIF cable can be made using a quality 75 ohm coax video cable (i.e. Belden 1505A, Canare LV-61S or equivalent), and to turn the 110 ohm AES source into a 75 ohm impedance install 237 ohms of resistance across pins 2 and 3 within the cables AES's XLR-F connector with the center conductor of coax to pin 2 and shield to pin 1. Then terminate the other end of the coax with either a 75 ohm BNC or 75 ohm RCA connector to meet your needs.
The 237 ohm resistance in parallel with the 110 ohm AES source converts it to 75 ohm internally in the XLR-F connector and is then 75 ohm impedance matched all the way to the SPDIF termination. I've since purchased a large stock of 237 ohm resistors and hand tested/sorted each using my HP3478A Bench Meter to find the ones that meet the tightest tolerance.
I used a Neutrik XCC connector for this build but you could use a standard XLR-F connector too.
EDIT TO ADD: I've had a few requests from TS members to sell these cables. If you'd like one please feel free to send me a PM, I'd be glad to make one for you if you're not capable or don't want to make one yourself. I can confirm this cable also works going AES out of a Apogee MiniMe to S/PDIF in on PMD 661.

Here is a much better solution I ran across for this application and made up one of these cables myself using parts on hand. It works clean from MixPre-D AES to Marantz PMD661 S/PDIF at 24/96. I can confirm this cable also works going the AES out of a Apogee MiniMe to S/PDIF in on a PMD 661.
A passive impedance conversion AES to S/PDIF cable can be made using a quality 75 ohm coax video cable (i.e. Belden 1505A, Canare LV-61S or equivalent), and to turn the 110 ohm AES source into a 75 ohm impedance install 237 ohms of resistance across pins 2 and 3 within the cables AES's XLR-F connector with the center conductor of coax to pin 2 and shield to pin 1.

My cable utilizes a Neutrik XCC connector which maintains the coaxial shield something that ordinary XLR connectors don't.

If you'd like one please feel free to send me a PM, I'd be glad to make one for you if you're not capable or don't want to make one yourself. There are now several people out there using my DigiGal AES > S/PDIF passive impedance conversion cable. I keep stock on hand for a quick build time and am considering posting in the Retail thread since demand has been fairly steady.

There are three resistors in the photo, I used values that I had on hand to make a simple series parallel resistor network that gave me the 237 ohms required.OK I see.
I'm excited to get this cable and actually have 2 digi outs from the Apogee MiniMe!Very easy to make.
Yes, I see your bag.
Nice so and probably more usefull to have a look on time-code for example.
For Tekkeon MP3450, it's a good idea.
I understand there is a fix output to 5V and another one variable (12V possible).

Is it easy to wire a Hirose connector on the box side?
For 5V , is the same connector for Marantz as for desktop ?
