1. INTRODUCTION
The HD Audio Center is designed to allow multiple audio sources to
be controlled, switched and output to a variety of audio equipment.
With its 6 audio inputs (including an HDMI input) and 6 audio outputs
(including a 6.3mm headphone output) you can integrate and
active speakers.
This device has an built-in sampling rate converter which can
upscale audio signals between 44.1 kHz to 192 kHz (24-bit). With HDMI
connectivity, it allows the user to embed or de-embed audio within
the HDMI signal path.
noise Professional Balanced output) and 6.3mm headphone jack (3.5
mini-jack adaptor supplied) offer unparalleled audio quality. With a
