How to Use a Yamaha D2040 Audio Crossover

The Yamaha D2040 is a digital audio splitter. It can take either a single digital or analog audio input and split it into four different analog outputs. The audio source determines whether the audio input is digital or analog. Each of the four outputs is split into its left and right channels, which you can control using the interface on the D2040. The outputs would connect either to four different sets of speakers or to four different audio interfaces.
