Legacy composite video sources don't have to be left behind. The SpeaKa Professional SP-12170984 bridges the gap between classic RCA/Cinch equipment and modern HDMI displays, converting analog composite video and stereo audio into a crisp 1080p digital signal. Unlike basic adapters, it actively processes PAL, NTSC, SECAM and variants, ensuring stable output on any HDMI monitor or TV.

In daily use

Connect your VCR, retro game console, camcorder or DVD player to the RCA inputs, then run an HDMI cable to your display. The converter upscales the analog signal and embeds the stereo audio into the HDMI stream, so you only need one cable to the TV. Power is drawn from any USB port or the included USB power adapter, making it easy to place near your source devices. The unit handles both 480i/p and 576i/p input resolutions, delivering a clean, stable picture without HDCP restrictions.
