ABSTRACT
The benefits of converting from analogue audio to digital audio are:
The quality of the digital audio system only depends on the conversion process, whereas the quality of an analogue audio system depends on the component parts of the system.
Digital components tend to be easier and cheaper to produce than high-specification analogue components.
Copying digital information is relatively easy and does not lead to a degradation of the signal.
Digital storage tends to use less physical space than equivalent analogue forms.
It is easier to transmit digital data.
Information can be added to digital data so that errors can be corrected.
Improved signal-to-noise ratios and dynamic ranges are possible with a digital audio system.
