What is digital audio?

What do u mean by 'Analog' & 'Digital' audio out ?

  • I am planning to buy a Blu-ray player...It has a 7.1 digital audio out..What does it mean.? Is it possible for me to connect a 7.1 speaker system to this player ? What is the difference between Analog & digital audio out ?

  • Answer:

    Analog out are the red/white RCA cables you connect to a TV. To experience digital audio you need to connect it to an AV receiver or amplifier with digital audio inputs. You can't connect speakers directly to a BD player.

Analog out has to go to analog in. Digital out has to go to digital in. Analog audio is the "old" standard way of doing audio. Connect speakers or an amp and speakers and your all set. Digital is the audio is 1's and 0's. It will have to be converted to analog before it can be sent to the speakers. The only real difference is where the audio is converted. It can be converted inside the Blu Ray player or it can be converted by another device outside the player. Either way it has to be converted. If the outside device is good quality there will be no difference in what you hear. You can get surround sound or any other audio system in analog as well as digital.

You need a 7.1 surround receiver to get 7.1. You can get a 5.1 Dolby digital speaker system to play surround from a Blu-Ray player.
