Overview
|
The RU-AFC2 is a stereo
bidirectional audio format converter. The bidirectional format
allows the RU-AFC2 to fully convert the stereo input and stereo
output of a consumer audio product to professional balanced
standards
It can equally convert the stereo input and stereo output of a
professional audio product to consumer unbalanced standards. The
audio fidelity, low noise, low distortion and excellent crosstalk
performance of the RU-AFC2 are ideally suited to the most critical
applications
The RU-AFC2 has been carefully engineered in meticulous detail to
provide the ultimate audio interface package available.
Unbalanced audio connections are available on front panel RCA
jacks. Balanced audio connections are available on front panel XLR
jacks and on rear panel detachable terminal blocks
The shield connections of the XLR output jacks are connected to
the case through a rear panel ground lift switch. The unbalanced
to balanced section includes an additional MONO summed output on a
rear panel detachable terminal block which may be wired balanced
or unbalanced
The mono output may be used to drive patch bay jacks, powered
monitors or subwoofer amplifiers.
Each of the left and right outputs is equipped with a dual LED
VUmeter. The intensity of the green LED is proportional to the
audio level
The red LED flashes at the calibrated output level, -10 dBV
unbalanced or +4 dBu balanced.
An individual multi turn level trimmer is provided on the front
panel for each output channel
The RU-AFC2 operates from ground referenced 24 Vdc. Use the
RU-AFC2 individually, or combine it with other RDL products as
part of a complete audio and video system
