I’m using the MC2 between a Node 2i and an MHDT Orchid and it sounds great. A huge improvement over the internal DAC. The MC2 is big and needs about 6 inches clearance behind the unit to make a bend. The 2i has limited room around the RCA jack and the MC2 a fat jack so direct plug in isn’t possible. I have a couple AQ gold plated RCA 90’s and that solved both issues.
Acoustic Zen MC2 110 ohm?
I’ve been reading various posts, trying to get up to speed on RCA digital cables. I want to connect a Node2 to my Marantz CD player, to get the benefit of the better DAC.
I’ve found several mentions that a true 75-ohm impedance cable is very important for sound quality. I’ve also seen several people praising the AZ MC2. But when I see the specs for the MC2, it appears to be 110-ohm impedance. Am I missing something here?
