Hi guys,
I own a grey standard Naim I/C modified by the Naim dealer from DIN to DIN to DIN to RCA. I used to use this cable to connect my previous CD5i-2 to my NAD S300. At the moment I have an opposite situation, I need to connect my BR player Oppo BDP83 to my Supernait 2 and I do not know if I can use the same cable or I need a new cable. Are the internal wiring connections different between DIN to RCA (my cable) and RCA to DIN. Any suggestion?
Regards

You can use the same cable but it is "directional" - i.e. it's mean't to sound better one way than the other - so you'll be running it backwards, and it may not sound quite as good (plenty of threads here on the whole subject of directionality in cabling). My own view is that for relatively non-critical situations then running a cable the wrong way is better than not being able to run any cable at all...

Your best bet is that if you're in a pinch, try it out and see. I'm pretty sure the wiring is the same, it's just the 'directionality' of the cable that's different.
