Help on XLR connection (Yggdrasil - Burmester)

[moos]

Dears,

I’m going to connect, through XLR, Yggdrasil DAC with the integrated Burmester 082. 

I just read the two equipments have a different XLR configuration, with pin 2-pos and 3-neg for the Yggy and the opposite for the Burmester. 

My doubts are:

- is this going to damage the electronics? Or is it just an issue of phase/polarity inversion?

- is the “phase inverter” button on the Yggy enough to connect them with same polarity

- do I need a modified cable or an inverter plug to fix it and avoid any problem?

Sorry for the basic questions but I’m not an expert here

thanks a lot

ciao

Using the phase inverter button will fix it.  You'll have no other issues. 

 

Another approach would be to swap leads on your speakers.  Nothing else is required.  Do either, but not both.

Or use Neutrik NA3FMX if you'd like to buy something.
