Amplifiers with balanced digital (AES/EBU) input
— the presence in the amplifier design of the input for operation with a balanced digital signal of the AES / EBU standard. This standard is considered professional and is relatively rare in consumer-level technology — in most amplifiers, the role of a digital input is usually played by its simplified counterpart, coaxial S / P-DIF, while the presence of AES / EBU indicates a high class device. Balanced connection, which has an increased degree of protection against interference and a minimum of restrictions on the length of the wire, is provided through the use of an XLR connector in this interface. However, this connector should not be confused with analogue XLR inputs: AES / EBU uses a completely different data transfer format and allows you to work even with multi-channel audio through one cable.
