Features:

• 8 x 8 channels of analog input/output with 8 x 8 channels of AES/EBU or optical digital input/output
• Optical digital supports ADAT, SMUX, and S/PDIF
• S/PDIF input and output up to 192 kHz on RCA coaxial that replaces two input channels and mirrors two output channels
• Ultra-low latency AD and DA conversion
• Rear-panel digital I/O hardware switch selects AES or optical digital I/O format

The 8x8 Mk II Module is a 16-channel module for the Symphony I/O that allows for any combination of 8 x 8 analog input and output, and 8 x 8 AES/EBU or optical digital input and output. The module occupies one of the two slots on the chassis. The A/D circuit has been refined to offer a streamlined circuit design, resulting in the most transparent signal path to the A/D stage possible. A dual-sum A/D stage is utilized where two conversion stages are summed for each analog channel.

The D/A section has been optimized with a more powerful and robust output driver that is capable of driving virtually any input without a decrease in performance, regardless of the load presented by the connected gear.
