Like many people who outfitted their entertainment systems with nice audio systems years ago, I'm between a rock and a hard place as a growing number of companies are no longer including standard RCA analog outputs on their equipment.Specifically, I purchased a Sony Blu-Ray/DVD player and it will output only HDMI or digital coaxial sound. That means for me that I can play it through my modern tv speakers only, but not through my twenty year old gorgeous sounding audio system which I love!Enter this nifty little converter, which was easy to use with only one difficulty, which was quickly resolved. First I hooked it up in the most obvious way possible. (In case anyone wants the obvious details: Plug one end of a digital coaxial cable into your Blu-Ray/DVD player and the other end into this converter box. Then plug a pair of red-and-white RCA cables into the converter and the other end into stereo receiver's input. Then plug the converter into a/c power outlet.) First result? Noise. So I looked at the box and noticed a red sticker that said "Important notice! please set the digital output of the audio source to PCM, otherwise there will be noise." I did that, and it worked like a charm. I had thought that since my device was set to "auto" it would automatically pick the right format, but it did not.The red sticker also warns you that the product doesn't decode dolby digital or DTS audio stream. So I guess if you have either of those, don't buy this!For me it worked great. If you do buy it, make sure you have a digital cable (coaxial or SPDIF optical) and a pair of red-and-white RCA cables. Neither are included.PROSWorks great to hook up modern digital sound devices (Blu-Ray/DVD players for example) to an older audio receiver and speakers.Can also be used to hook up a device with digital sound output (ie. a DVD/Blu-Ray player) to stereo headphones via a simple headphone jack.Simple to use and good sound qualityDirections minimal but essential info included via a red sticker on the box. Read the red sticker!CONSDoesn't work for dolby digital or DTS audio stream.Cables not included---buy your own first!

I was using my Edifier R1700BTs speakers through the USB connection on my TV with an adapter before I plugged this in using the optical output instead. The sound quality and loudness quadrupled. I am very happy with this product and would recommend to anyone.

I have my LG 42LM3400 42" 1080p 60Hz Cinema 3D LED TV connected through a digital optical cable to this device. The stereo output is connected to an old all-in-one Panasonic Home Theatre System (it's from 2005, so it only plays DVD's). I use only a PS3 and Chromecast to view media, no cable.The device works very well, audio is always in sync and there is no distortion. I have had no overheating from the device. It hangs from the digital cable connected to the TV, so it probably receives decent cooling. I do have 2 complaints though.1. Although the device is always powered on, sometimes the audio doesn't output immediately upon power up of the TV and PS3. This never occured with my old LG TV connected to the Panasonic System. It doesn't bother me though because it doesn't always happen and it lasts for at most 2 seconds. There is never interuptions after the TV is on.2. Volume's maximum setting is much lower than when I had my old TV directly connected to the Panasonic system. This is an issue when watching Netflix if there are other semi-loud device on (fans, air conditioner, vaccuum). I would probably need an amplifier to get the volume I used to have with straight analog connections.I still think this is a good buy if you need to hook your new TV with digital only outputs to an old analog Home Theatre System. It's cheaper than buying a new system and it works fine. Just don't expect Movies to be at their loudest. Curiously, when streaming audio on the PS3, the volume get noticeably louder than other content. I'm very pleased with this item as it has worked great for the past 2 months.

Es un producto genial es perfecto para pantallas ó aparatos de audio que solo cuentan con salida de audio óptico digital, lo compré para mi pantalla para poder usarla de noche con audÃfonos, el producto trae el cable para conectarlo al tomacorriente y también trae el cable de audio óptico digital incluido, se conecta el cable de audio óptico digital (SFDIF Y COAXIAL compatible) a la pantalla y al aparato y, al menos en mi caso tuve que configurar mi pantalla en el apartado SALIDA DE AUDIO Bocina interna del TV+ Salida de audio óptica PCM y listo, en consolas como PS3, XBOX 360 etc. Hay que ponerles la opción de audio en ESTÉREO, tiene Jack 3.5 para usar audifónos y salida L/R para estéreos y modulares antiguos, si se usan audÃfonos es recomendable que tengan control de volumen ya que no se puede regular el volumen desde la pantalla o aparato en que use, llegó antes de lo estimado en buen estado y bien empaquetado, aunque es de plástico es de calidad y no se siente frágil lo compré hace 9 meses y sigue funcionando perfectamente, el audio es limpio no se oye interferencia ni ruido de fondo

Si tu Tele no tiene salida análoga (como ya casi todas las pantallas hoy en dÃa), tal vez te has preguntado cómo conectarle tus bocinas de PC para por lo menos tener un buen subwoofer que te dé mejores bajos que las bocinas de fábrica. Con este pequeño gadget podrás hacerlo, INCLUYE CABLE ÓPTICO DE 1M.Muy simple de conectar;1- Tienes dos modos de entrada, óptico y coaxial (digital).2- Y dos modos de salida, RCA y 3.5mm, ambos compatibles con cualquier estéreo o bocinas de PC. Todas las bocinas de PC de 2.1 canales se conectan a la PC usando 3.5mm y raramente RCA, asà que ni siquiera necesitarás comprar un cable para conectarlas al adaptador.3- Sacas el sable óptico y le quitas los protectores de las puntas, y lo conectas al adaptador y a tu consola, debes oÃr un click en ambas.4- Conectas el adaptador a la electricidad y al adaptador y encenderá la luz roja.5- Le conectas tu bocinas o audÃfonos.6- La PS4 automáticamente da salida óptica todo el tiempo aunque no tenga nada conectado, pero si no quieres que las bocinas de tu tele funcionen te metes al sistema y al audio y le des-seleccionas la salida de audio HDMi para que sólo quede la óptica, pero igual no estorban, y no tiene (el convertidor) lag, asà que serán como más bocinas al mismo tiempo.7- Si son audÃfonos los que usas, asegúrate de conectarlos primero a un amplificador para audÃfonos, porque de lo contrario el volumen será siempre el mismo; en las bocinas de PC no tendrás este problema porque vienen con su control de volumen (por lo general).Detalles:- El adaptador no tiene switch de ON/OFF, asà que si no lo quieres dejar prendido por alguna razón que pudieras tener, tienes que desconectarle el plug de corriente, o el enchufe de la luz.- El cable óptico, al ser fibra de vidrio es muy tiezo y será algo estorboso al principio porque parecerá resorte; asà que déjalo un poco estirado por la noche para que se relaje y ya no se haga bolas.

Cuando lo recibÃ, lo conecté y hacia un ruido muy agudo (tenia que desconectarlo para que no lo hiciera) ademas de que el sonido que salia hacia mis bocinas era muy pobre, demasiado bajo ademas de que no salia con calidad aunque regulara el teatro en casa. Ayer 15 agosto me dio por volverlo a conectar y sorpresa! ya no sacaba ruido y ademas el sonido salia con mucho mas volumen y mejor calidad.

Bought so I could try to run my tv through a Pioneer SX 727. Worked perfectly. Was a bit surprised as the wire coming from the "optical" audio output was very thin. To be honest, now the sound coming out of the TV is as good or better than any of the other inputs! Also, very easy to install. I see they are lumping several models into this review section, so, I bought the blue and white one if that helps. Needs an outlet for the power supply. Good purchase!

Nesecitaba un producto como este para la salida de audio digital de un proyector que usamos para reuniones por motivos religiosos...Funciono muy bien, compacto, pero muy funcional sin ninguna distorsion de audio. La verdad buena relacion calidad/precio. Y les digo funciono muy bien esa primera y unica vez porque de ahi a los dos dias entraron unos ladrones y se llevaron todo(Esto es Mexico). En fin......ahora tendremos que empezar a comprar todo de nuevo y no dudare en comprar otro...Saludos¡¡¡¡
