Midiman M-Audio C02 Coaxial/Optical Bi-Directional Converter Review
Midiman M-Audio C02 Coaxial/Optical Bi-Directional Converter Feature
- Ultra-compact bi-directional converter
- Coverts optical S/PDFI to coaxial S/PDFI, and vice-versa
- Two digital inputs for versatility
- Three-way switch selects operating mode
- Transformer-isolated RCA jack prevents system ground loops
The bottom line is that the CO2 Coaxial/Optical Bi-Directional Converter allows you to bridge the gap between devices and machines that would otherwise be incompatible. The CO2 breathes new life into your recording system, allowing different elements to communicate, changing signals from coaxial-to-optical and back again. This allows you to converge two otherwise incompatible musical signals with one uncommonly versatile converter. Ever notice how most surround receivers seem to have only one S/PDIF input and several Toslink inputs, yet most components seem to have coaxial S/PDIF outputs? M-Audio did; that's why they created the C02 to help you interconnect S/PDIF and Toslink I/O in either direction. The CO2 is a compact and rugged digital audio tool that converts S/PDIF signals from optical to coax and from coax to optical. Its 2-in, 2-out design allows the CO2 to operate as a full-duplex, bi-directional converter, or as a half-duplex converter with "thru" port—allowing it to work as both a converter and a repeater. The repeater comes in handy if you need to run Toslink cables more than 10 feet. The CO2 converter is also affordable enough that it's easy to add several if needed.
