1. Introduction
This comprehensive audio converter device allows users to make a wide use
with audio format and interfaces. With three different types of bidirectional
connectors of optical, Coaxial and L/R, this device can convert all three signals
into the desire format. Analog audio signal can be converts into digital output
and digital audio signal can be converts into analog output. Not only so, it
can be perform simultaneously without any signal loss. The audio converter is
compact and elegant, it is easy to set up and friendly use.
