INSTALLATION & APPLICATIONS
The audio de-embedder gives you the flexibility you need for dozens of custom applications. Here are examples of
three of the most common uses:
• To install whole-house stereo sound, see
Equipment Rack / Whole-House Audio
• To install stereo sound in one zone only, see
In-Room Two-Channel Amplifier
• To deliver HDMI stereo to your television, see
TV Audio
This unit has two EDID modes for the audio channel: in pass-through mode, the EDID is read from the display/sink. In
any other mode, the audio EDID is fixed. Call technical support if you want to ensure your custom plan is supported.
Equipment Rack / Whole-House Audio
In this application, the whole-house audio matrix uses two-channel audio. We need to create a second zone that
uses multichannel audio for the zone’s AVR.
1. Connect the HDMI output of the source to the HDMI IN port of the audio de-embedder.
2. Connect the HDMI OUT of the audio de-embedder to the HDMI input of the video matrix.
3. Connect the HDMI output of the video matrix to the AVR and video display.
4. Connect the analog audio cables from the RCA outputs on the de-embedder to the audio inputs of the whole
house audio matrix
5. Connect power to the B-240-HD-2AC.
6. Set the HDMI OUT audio switch to
Source
to pass the original HDMI audio signal through to the HDMI OUT
of the B-240-HD-2AC. This will distribute two-channel analog audio to the whole house audio matrix. See
Rear
Panel
for more details.
