    TOSLINK to AES/EBU converters

    Yes that works nicely! I did not think that the cheap ADC would have a high enough audio output and that I would have needed to put the output through my analogue system but this is not the case. And I now can put the output of my analogue system through an analogue to digital converter - and...

    TOSLINK to AES/EBU converters

    Just to report that I found another solution which completely stops the glitches from the LG TOSLINK output. I fed the TOSLINK to a simple TOSLINK to Analogue converter and then to a simple Analogue to TOSLINK converter with the output from this going to the original AliExpress TOSLINK to AES...

    TOSLINK to AES/EBU converters

    After investigating further (without an oscilloscope) I have been able to demonstrate that you were correct and that the problem is with the TOSLINK output of my LG OLED55CS6LA television. I can send a 440hz audio signal from an attached computer directly to the speakers either via TOSLINK and...

    TOSLINK to AES/EBU converters

    Gear4Music have sent me this which may or may not be correct. Any comments? "Lambden Audio LA507 A Toslink-S/PDIF interface unit (likely a Toslink splitter/switch or interface), not directly related to format conversion between AES/EBU and S/PDIF, and definitely not the same as the Hosa...

    TOSLINK to AES/EBU converters

    That link is to the USB version of the Aliexpress item that I have and which has problems. The reviewer did not like it.

    TOSLINK to AES/EBU converters

    But that does not output an AES/EBU signal.

    TOSLINK to AES/EBU converters

    Thanks for that - but since the Toslink sent to a Marantz receiver has no problems I do not think that the problem is with the TV's output.

    No - I was being serious!

    TOSLINK to AES/EBU converters

    But would the Lambden LA507 do the same but much cheaper?

    TOSLINK to AES/EBU converters

    But if the TOSLINK is fed directly to the TOSLINK input of my previous system - a Marantz M-CR612 with QUAD ESL63 speakers there is no audible problem. Maybe I need to look at the AES output with an oscilloscope!

    TOSLINK to AES/EBU converters

    They look the same but does they perform the same? Has anyone opened and compared them? There is a huge difference in cost. And the test description of the Lambden LA507 on the Gear4You site is a little odd because it only mentions AES to Toslink conversion although the pictures seem to imply...

    TOSLINK to AES/EBU converters

    I want to send the TOSLINK signal from a "Smart" TV to Genelec 8351Bs speakers without doing a conversion to analogue and then having to use an analogue output device. I therefore need to convert the TOSLINK signal to AES/EBU and have found several devices to do this. The first I have tried is...

    I have chosen the Genelec 8351Bs with add on VESA mounts to connect to a Barkan Model E140 wall mount so that they can be fixed to concrete columns. I did not realise that the digital input is not the TOSLINK version that the LG "smart" TV provides and that I will need a TOSLINK to AES/EBU...

    A very nice solution - and the speaker drivers are hidden !

    High Quality Wall Speakers

    My current sound source is a pair of Quad ESL63s fed from a Marantz M-CR612 (which replaced a Quad 44/ Quad 405 Mk2 combination)- and the only correction I have done is to manually introduce 6dB of bass cut from the amplifier to flatten the in room bass response that was shown by the combination...

    Its a shame that to to do the in room correction both Genelec and Neumann need you to buy their calibrated microphone rather than allowing the use of a MiniDSP UMIK-1 calibrated microphone that I just bought to work with REW software.; unless someone has found a work around?

    In the end I will probably choose White Genelec 8351Bs. I note that they are now available in the whole range of RAL colours - but they have not extended the colour onto the central driver which I think is a shame.

    I meant to type 8341A - but I now think that the Genelec 8351B would fit the bill better than the Neumann KH150 - and could be wall mounted.

    High Quality Wall Speakers

    ChatGPT is suggesting also the Kii3 and Neumann KH150. There is a wall mount sold for the Kii3 that would work but its a bit pricey and I see no way to properly hide its front. The Neumann KG150 seems to tick all the boxes and has a range of wall mounting solutions. When I previously...

    If so why are there no pictures anywhere showing this? I want not to be able to see the cones of the drivers.
