APPLICATION SPOTLIGHT

In this week’s Application Spotlight, we review proper audio format conversion between balanced and unbalanced signals.?

If you’re not aware, balanced and unbalanced audio signals are very different from each other including signal level strength, wiring, connector types, noise rejection, and signal distance capabilities.? If you want to convert them properly, don’t use a patch cable, use a professional audio format converter.?

RDL’s EZ-AFC2 Audio Format Converter is a high-quality, bi-directional stereo converter designed to properly adapt the inputs and outputs of consumer audio products to the inputs and outputs of professional equipment.? The front-panel features stereo inputs and outputs on unbalanced RCA jacks, level controls and LED VU metering.? The rear panel features stereo inputs and outputs on balanced XLR jacks, and a locking power jack for the included power supply.? The EZ-AFC2 has exceptional headroom and frequency response, making it ideal for any system application.

It is frequently necessary to use professional and consumer audio equipment in the same environment. In this week’s system example, RDL’s EZ-AFC2 provides both balanced to-unbalanced and unbalanced-to-balanced conversion for stereo audio line-level signals in an Audiophile’s home listening room.? Superior electrical performance ensures audio transparency. ?All channels are monitored via dual-LED VU meters. Front panel knobs allow for easy level adjustment. The fully connectorized EZ-AFC2 makes this common interface task as easy as possible.?

This application could also be used to convert recordings from consumer devices to professional recording equipment, or visa-versa, play background music from a smart device or media player into a professional audio mixer at a school or church, or convert a laptop’s audio outputs to the professional XLR inputs of a wall mounted Dante interface in a conference room.? ?In today’s electronic world, nearly every audio system needs an EZ-AFC2 Audio Format Converter.
