V2 has XLR and RCA ouputs, SBM-1 has RCA inputs.
what are the best outputs to use to go to a SBM-1?
is balanced vs unbalanced gonna matter?
-
Just go RCA > RCA. Get a nice set of Zaolla silverline's dual RCA cables.

hey jason where's a good place to pick up some zaolla dual rca's at?

wow....they are pretty expensive! i might look around here locally and see if any stores around here have some quality dual rca cables. don't think i can spend that much after just buying v2, mod sbm1 & adk tl's ;)

you can get quality custom cables from Ed at www.kindkables.com. Not everyone thinks that they "stack up" against the pure silver cables...and while they probably don't (based on a spec sheet anyway), a majority of people dont have a playback system to be able to hear the difference.

Just remember that the V2 outputs less via rca>rca

i run this combo, are you saying that it is just an attenuated signal or it is of less quality than the xlr output, if thats so, then i might need to get some xlr>rca cables instead of the HQ ratshack rca>rca cables i run now

going through the V2 manual, this is the only thing I can find that deals with what you are saying: (on specifications page)
MAXIMUM OUTPUT LEVEL:
Balanced +27 dB
Unbalanced +21 dBu
whats the difference between dB and dBu?
is this similar to the difference between "pro" and "consumer"

if i recall correctly, i think i remember doug oade saying there are less electronics to go through when going rca>rca. a cleaner signal? :hmmm:
