Re: SPDIF

2004-01-28 by clintfisher

Glad to know it's not just me experiencing this problem.

If you hear of a way to insure better SPDIF connectivity, please let 
us know.  I've tried many things, including making sure that the XL-7 
is plugged in to the same power strip as the computer and sound-
card.  It helped a bit, but it's still not perfect.  And when I'm 
recording, perfect is mandatory.  I'm using a HOSA 6' "digital" RCA 
cable, which should be more than adequate for the task.  None of my 
other components display this behavior, and since other people are 
experiencing this, I'm thinking that the XL-7 SPDIF-out design is 
pretty much defective.   Wah.
