[BC] Bird to Coaxial dynamics adapter

[Andy Green Listservers]

HI All -

I realise that for accurate results that they should be treated as a matched 
set, but in a multi staion situation like here in europe, you cant send 30 
line sections of with 1 meter!
I use the meter not for absolute measurement to the last watt (or tens of 
watt etc), but just as a record to see has anything changed at each site.

The Bird and Coaxial products were engineered to be electrically identical, 
so al I need is an adapter .

Who or what is the DC connector on the Bird line sections?

Best regards,

Andy Green
