Routers & D.A.’s Out of Kona-Suggestions?

[Bob Zelin]

AJA makes a product superior to the Hotronics called the D10CE
https://www.aja.com/d10ce.htm

The AJA I/O LA gives you all of this flexibility, plus control right from your MAC and within FCP, all for under $1000. I don’t see how a $560 Hotronics D/A converter is a better value.

The problem with owning the “one two punch” (by TecNec or Laird – this is the same product line from the same company – Markertek house brand) – or a small 4×4 router is that you RUN OUT OF INPUTS AND OUTPUTS. Having a large router is terrific, but they cost a lot of money. Again, nothing will beat the flexibility and relatively inexpensive price of patch panels.

Hi Kevin

I just put a component patch panel up on eBay.

I have the Kona 2 and IO set up that others recommend.
I sprung for the overkill so I don’t need the patch panel.
Patch panels are great things.
