In other words, the current required for signal transmission tends to be kept low.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlso, due to the resistance component (impedance) of the transmission path (interconnect cable), the voltage of the transmitted signal is attenuated by the level calculated by Ohm's law (voltage = current × resistance) when delivered to the target device. Therefore, a longer the cable causes increased resistance which has significant effects on that signal.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn contrast, in current transmission, the output impedance of the source device is high and the input impedance of the input device is low, resulting in a “High out, Low in” circuit, and the current level is maintained higher during signal transmission than in voltage transmission, allowing a powerful audio signal delivery.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlso, in current transmission, the current level output from the source device always matches the one on the target device.

As long as there are no holes in the hose, the same amount of water from the faucet will always flow to the bucket, regardless of the length of the hose.\u003cbr\u003eSimilarly, if the cable that serves as the transmission path is not divided into multiple paths, all current from the source device will be delivered to the target device, and the current values flowing will always be the same, even if the transmission path is longer.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis advantage of accurate transmission of even the smallest signals is evident from the fact that current transmission is widely used in measuring instruments that measure precise signals.\u003cbr\u003eConventional voltage transmission impedance of the Esoteric products is designed several tens of ohms on out-going circuits and around 100k ohms on in-coming circuits. In contrast, the ES-Link Analog out-going\/in-coming circuits are designed approximately 1k ohms on the out-going circuit, and 0 ohm on the in-coming circuit.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf we focus on the current value that flows when transmitting audio signals, the current level of ES-Link Analog transmission when transmitting audio signals at the same level as normal voltage transmission is approximately 100 times higher than the current level flowing in voltage transmission.
