I will be contacting Mytek tomorrow and the DAC will be connected to my preamp with balanced cables. Some DAC's like Benchmark have dip switches to set output voltage and i was thinking maybe someone out there knows if the Brooklyn + has a way to control the output voltage on balance output. Thanks for the response nekoaudio.
Balanced connecter output voltage on a Brooklyn + DAC.
Does anyone know what the balanced connecters output voltage is on a Brooklyn + DAC? I have a Luxman CL-38uC and it states that the maximum input level at the balanced input is 2.5 V and therefore sound signals may be distorted if a device with larger output level is connected. Would appreciate any feedback. Thanks!

I did not get a respond from Mytek but i did find this out. This specs are from the original Brooklyn, the maximum output levels at 1kHz were 9.84V from the balance outputs and 4.9V from the single ended outputs. My question is does the -6dB attenuation cut this values in exactly half? So with the internal -6dB jumpers engaged, the balance output would be 4.92V and single ended output 2.45V. Is this correct, if no could some one tell me the voltage for each with -6dB jumpers engaged. Any feed back greatly appreciated! With no jumpers, too hot for me. Thanks in advance! Newbee Joe. |
-6dB should cut the voltage roughly in half. Here's a dB <-> voltage calculator. |
