Mark Levinson 31 Manual page 19

PRECAUTION
5 slave out
6 slave in
These communication ports allow the Nº31 to "link" to certain
compatible Mark Levinson components. (See "Linked functions.")
Using the Link cable, connect the Nº31's slave in port to the master
port on the Mark Levinson digital processor.
Make sure that the Link cable's locking tabs engage securely in the
components' communication ports.
If linking a second Nº31, connect the second Nº31's slave in port to
the first Nº31's slave out port.
Connecting the communication ports other than as
described in this manual will damage the Nº31 and the
digital processor, and will void the products' warranties.

Note: The quality of the cables and connectors that you use
with your Nº31 can noticeably affect sound quality. For
electrical interconnection, we recommend Madrigal MDC
cable.
MDC-1 Pro is designed for AES/EBU interconnection; MDC-2
FatBoy is designed for SPDIF interconnection. MDC is
available in various lengths, pre-terminated with RCA and
XLR connectors. See your Mark Levinson dealer for more
