    Eight channel RCA to DB25 cable

    For those of you who have been looking, I've found a cable company that makes eight channel RCA to DB25 cables. The name is Cobalt Cables, and they sell over the internet.

    Thanks for the info, Steve. I'll keep them in mind if I get a source that outputs 8 analog channels (so far, I'm maxed out at 6, which is covered by the supplied adaptor). OTOH, it would be nice to have a direct connection from the source outputs to the RDC-7's DB-25 connector without another set of plugs in the chain. I can't help but think the extra connections degrade the signal, even if only slightly. But for a hi-rez source, every little bit counts. :>)

    PS -- Have you tried one of the 8 channel adaptors yet?

      If you have a 7.1 system, as I do, you might want to think about using an 8-channel cable, since you can use an RCA splitter to send the rear channels to both side and back speakers. I have not yet tried their adaptor.

        DB25 to RCA cable
        by n9949y
        Where can I get a DB25 to RCA cable?

        Am planning to buy a Blu-Ray Profile 2.0 Panasonic DMP-BD50 player which has 6 5.1 channel analog RCA audio outputs. My Rotel RSX-965 is equipped with a DB25 25 pin 5.1 channel analog audio input.

        If anyone is still wondering where to buy such an adapter, Cobalt Cable makes them for about $140. http://www.cobaltcable.com

        RMB- 1095 DB25 cable question
        by ht_addict
        Just curious if there is a DB25 to RCA cable out there that would replace the 5 cables already going from my pre to amp. Thanks

        DB25 cable caused all my issues in RSP-985
        by Rotel4Life
        Got a used 985 from an auction site. Looks perfect but had a hum on all inputs, all sources, on mute etc. If it was on, there was a hum. Also there was an audio 'hiccup'- like a 1/2 sec pause in sound every few minutes. My setup worked perfectly with an RTC965, nothing changed but swapping the 965...

        Using RMB-1095 DB25 connection question
        by ht_addict
        First off is anyone using the DB25 connection on the 1095? Have you tried RCA cables? Any difference in sound?

        I'm looking at replacing my RCA cables that I use to hookup between my pre/pro and 1095. Mainly to tidy up behind my rack. I'm interested in the CobaltCable DB25 to 6RCA
