The Audio Authority 979T converts analog audio signals to digital coaxial or digital optical PCM audio. The 979T is a high quality ADC (Analog to Digital Converter), allowing for simple audio signal conversion with no degradation, and supporting variable sampling rates for maximum fidelity. One input (analog L/R audio), one output (digital coaxial and digital optical audio). Made in the USA. The 979T's digital optical and digital coaxial outputs may be used simultaneously for maximum installation flexibility. Perfect for use with baluns that only offer digital audio pathways - pair it with a 979R at the other end to convert back to analog audio. Analog Audio Through a Digital Audio Balun Most baluns only carry Component Video and digital coaxial what is an integrator to do when analog audio is needed?A combination of the 979T and 979R can add analog capability to a digital-only the diagram above, an analog audio source is transformed to 2.0 PCM digital by the 979T, is transmitted through the digital audio channel of the balun, and using a 979R, is converted to analog to connect with an analog audio-only HDTV.The result?Analog audio through a digital-only balun!
