192kHz DAC Converter with Volume Control, Aluminum Digital SPDIF Toslink to Analog Stereo Audio Converter, R/L Converter Adapter with Optical, Coaxial and USB Cable For HDTV DVD PS4 Sky HD Blu-ray

I bought this to give me a headphone output from my Denon DCD-900 Hi Fi CD player.At just under 10 quid it's an absolute bargain!Great to see the micro USB power socket is now a USB C - that was an unexpected treat - I hate micro USB sockets!The unit is well built, small and neat with good quality connectors. It has a 3.5mm headphone jack and a little volume control which is nicely dampened to give a great physical feel.The volume control was so important with my intended use, otherwise the raw audio from a similar unit without the volume control would have taken my hearing out!I simply plugged the included USB C to USB power cable into a phone charger and the included optical toslink connector from my CD player's optical output to the input on this gadget.Plugged my lovely Sony studio headphones into the 3.5mm headphone jack, turned the volume down to 1/4, pressed play on a CD and...To my surprise and joy, I was enjoying absolutely superb sound reproduction!What a fantastic box of tricks!No noise, no distortion, just pure, detailed Hi Fi audio.My first impressions are that I'm blown away by this device, but time will tell if the joy keeps giving!I promise to update a few months down the line, to let you know if I'm still so pleased with my purchase!

Like others i bought this because my new tv has no headphone socket. I have Sennheiser wireless headphones which have a docking station that needs a headphone socket. This does the trick perfectly. Worked straight out of the box. It takes audio from the tv’s ‘optical audio out’ socket, via the supplied optical cable. (I had to go into the tv’s settings to cancel getting sound out of the tv speakers at the same time as the headphones.) The volume control works well - it came set at max, and I just leave it there as the headphones have their own volume control on one earpiece. The power supply is via usb-a cord, supplied, but it needs a wall socket usb adapter to plug into and this is not supplied. No worries though - I had an old phone charger plug with usb output, and anyway they’re dirt cheap on Amazon.

Very easy to setup. I'm running the DAC from the optical out on my TV and the RCA outputs to a logitech PC surround system. Output volume is a bit quiet. Turning the volume on the DAC up to full did the trick.No frills but gets the job done!

I wanted a widget to feed headphones from my Samsung TV, which only has an optical output.I’ve got this connected to one of those budget valve headphone amps (already own that), and use either Grado SR60 or Audio Technica K92 headphones. It can probably feed the headphones directly, but I suspect it’s just a way to get some noise to your ears. I’m not concerned about any of the multi-channel options, I only intend to use this for headphones, so a decent stereo sound is all I wanted from it, and it manages that just fine.The sound is great with this converter box. I had been using a Bluetooth adapter, but struggling to get a decent sound. Switching to the optical feed has made a massive difference. It feels well made, and supplied with decent enough cables. Just remember to switch your TV sound to PCM mode.Can’t find anything to fault here, and the price of it makes it a no brainer for a punt (you can spend this much on a bunch of cheap cables).

I purchased one of these for use on our bedroom TV to when playing games at night wearing headphones as Bluetooth was a little bit too laggy. The converter has two inputs, an RCA/phono connection for SPDIF digital input and an TOSLINK optical digital input. Outputs include a 3.5mm audio output for headphones and two RCA/phono sockets for left and right audio output. There's also a small volume control knob to adjust the headphones volume (not sure if it adjusts the phono output too, I haven't tried that).Power is provided by MicroUSB, a cable is included but you'll need a USB charger (I read somewhere it has to be 1 amp/1000mA). I did try an old mobile phone charger but found there was a very slight bit of interference, however using a USB charger from a FireTV stick works fine and doesn't have the interference.I've tried the converter with our Panasonic TV using and using a MiSTer using a digital IO board from MiSTerFPGA.co.uk and they both work fine without any noticeable lag.For the money it's great value and I can highly recommend it.

Bought this to link up my headphones. Watched several YouTube videos about this as I am not at all technical. My TV has no headphone jack so this device was recommended. You don't need a 5v USB plug if you have a usb port as you can use this as the power supply at the back. Instructions show where to plug in leads, my optical port on TV is a bit dodgy, but with some wiggling it worked. Plugged the headphones in....got an extension so I can sit on the sofa few meters away. Follow instructions for TV set up and works perfectly with the volume control. Doesn't allow me to select cinema sound though. My TV is quite old, & I didn't want to buy a Bluetooth TV.

Not very good. Can barely drive my 80 ohm DT770 headphones which shouldn't be a hard task.Just about acceptable at the max volume but still lacking.

Sound quality is acceptable however the left and right channels are reversed, rendering this item completely useless.
