<pre wrap="">I think I can say why yours is working correctly.
Your signal is a purely electrical SPDIF signal. Even though it's not
according to the -0.5 to +0.5 spec, it works because SPDIF is pretty
versatile. I have driven SPDIF signals successfully with 0V to +5V swings
(not recommended, but it produces sound) and I have driven SPDIF signals
successfully with 0V to +250mV swings. Again, not recommended but it
produces sound.

You certainly are risking frying the receiver. If that goes, there is
a small chance it could take out the MB.<br>

Build the network or buy the adapter.<br>
