Review: Useful for headphone sound - For apartment TV (58 inch Hisense), the headphone output is 2.0. Using and old laptop, with the Vantec NBA-0200U Usb device plugged into a usb 2.0 port, ... it became a new external audio device to use with regular headphones with a 3.5 mm male plug. Using the SPDIF TV output to the NBA-200U(cable not included), FosPower (0.9M/3FT) 24K Gold Plated Toslink Digital Optical Audio Cable (S/PDIF) - [Zero RFI & EMI Interference] Metal Connectors & Ultra Durable Nylon Braided Jacket. Once the external audio device is properly configured, the NBA-200U Adaptor front panel headphone jack, provides an incredible 7.1 "clean" sound field ... that can only be believed once heard ! The result is that now, ... in an apartment setting, the audio output from any TV source fed into NBA-200U Adaptor becomes a "surround experience" that will rival a big buck audio system, ... in stealth mode. The unit is an old school 2012 type of unit, and the software looks dated, BUT IT SURE WORKS FINE ! Such an inexpensive solution to achieve a sound field of astonishing proportions. What a GREAT device and RESULT !
Review: Pas le bon produit pour obtenir un son surround de la Shield TV - En connectant le Vantec sur un port USB d'une Shield TV Pro (le nouveau modèle), je pensais pouvoir avoir un son Dolby Digital 5.1 sur la sortie optique. Et bien non ! Stéréo au mieux. Par contre ça fonctionne en le connectant sur le port USB d'un PC sous W10 mais c'est pour moi sans intérêt. Je retournerai donc le produit.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: ouroboros**
A: The eternal cycle of destruction and new creation.

**Q: Can i input 7.1 or 5.1.2 (preferably via optical) into my pc for surround sound playback? i.e. through virtual surround sound?**
A: Thanks for asking.
If your input is 7.1 or 5.1.2, the answer is no.
If your input is stereo, the answer is yes.

First all optical (SPDIF) are two channel (stereo) period. All 5.1 or 7.1 sources thru optical are first compressed into 5.1 or 7.1 (encoded Dolby Digital/DTS) into 2 channel. It goes to a receiver with DTS or Dolby decoder back into 5.1 or 7.1 to the speakers.

Here is why the answer is no, if your input is in compress 5.1 or 7.1 (encoded), you need a decoder, the NBA-200U is not a decoder for Dolby Digital/DTS, for every audio encoder, there must be an audio decoder. If there is no decoder, when you playback, you will only hear buzzing noise.

If your input is stereo, it is not compressed and the NBA-200U will playback thru virtual Surround sound correctly.

**Q: Is there any way to get Dolby Digital Live or DTS Connect to work on this device?  I can't get surround sound when I'm playing games on my laptop.**
A: Dolby Digital and DTS are compressed formats, this device does not support compressed formats.

**Q: Are there any special drivers required for windows home server OS?**
A: Not really sure what do you mean by home server. I use it with Windows 7 x64 and it does not need any 3rd party drivers. The OS recognizes the device automatically, hope it helps

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excelente producto
*by L***O on 8 January 2022*

Lo compre en un inicio para conectar la salida audio óptico de mi Tv a la entrada de audio óptico de la tarjeta Vantec pero no dio señal, probé con otros dispositivos como Xbox one, play 4 y otra computadora con salida optical y estos si daban señal, por lo que deduje que la salida optical de mi tv era la que no servía y la entrada optical de la tarjeta Vantec si. Por lo tanto, estaba a nada de regresarla debido en que no cumplía lo que requería pero me convenció la excelente calidad de sonido que tiene a pesar de ser externa y de bajo costo, la recomiendo.
