INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of the HD Audio Converter.
Your satisfaction is very important to us. Our HA-110SA is designed to
make the use of your HDTV equipment more comfortable.
HA-110SA is a solution for users who use HDMI®product and like
to output audio to an audio system to enjoy High quality sound. Also,
some people have trouble to enjoy 3D and high quality audio at the
same time with their Home Theater System. With HA-110SA the
problem can be solved. HA-110SA separates audio from HDMI to
digital audio output (Optical, Coaxial), so users will not have problem to
watch 3D videos while connecting non-3D amplifier and 3D TV.
The feature designed digital audio output (Optical, Coaxial) makes
users easily share the digital audio of the source devices by connecting
one optical or coaxial audio cable to an audio system which does not
support HDMI connection. Moreover, the feature of supporting analog
audio (R/L) output also helps you enjoy the quality sound more easily.
HA-110SA can support HDMI 3D video format functions; and
compliant with your 3D enable devices. You can enjoy the convenience
of 3D features without interruption.
For the best performance of this unit, please read this manual
carefully and keep it for further information.
