Most newer audio equipment (such as TVs, cable boxes, CD players and gaming consoles) only outputs audio signals through digital optical or digital coaxial connections. That limitation can prevent you from outputting sound to your stereo equipment which may only accept analog signals. Our DAC s the ideal solution to convert digital audio signals to analog audio. Once in analog format, the signal can then be distributed up to 150 feet away, surpassing the length limitations of digital audio. This not only provides added flexibility for equipment placement, but also saves money by eliminating the need to purchase digital repeaters. This plug-and-play solution requires no additional software or drivers and supports Windows® 7. Up to three different devices can be connected at the same time using S/PDIF coaxial, TOSLINK optical, or USB input. This not only accommodates a variety of equipment types but also allows for multiple configurations based on the user's custom setup.

Please Note: This device cannot convert compressed digital audio formats such as Dolby Digital® or DTS®. It can only convert non-compressed audio such as PCM to an analog output.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great interface I am connecting my Tv to a mixing board of a large PA system. The signal is clear and just what I needed.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Does not work properly with AppleTV Purchased for TOSLINK connection to Headphone jack and to use with AppleTV 3. Audio sounds just OK bitrate much lower than imported into iTunes. But professional DAC would have been $600 so at least I can hear iTunes. Will not convert Dolby so don't try to hear a movie through it because jittering will occur and may damage speakers.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Nice but.. My folks got an LG Flat screen which only had optical for aux audio out so we ordered this to feed audio into their older stereo receiver input as the previous CRT tv had. Problem was this DAC does not decode all of the digital audio stream formats that the tv puts out. This only seems to the decode Stereo PCM that is on the old analog broadcasts. It went silent when we tuned in the digital channels whic all put out Dolby 3/2 or 5.2. So this device is fine for something like a cd player optical out and will not be any good on a DVD player or a TV or satelite receiver. We have to send ours back. It can be used to convert toslink to coax and the reverse regardless of audio format but don't expect it to give you the analog audio for anything other then stereo PCM signals.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Digital to analog converter A great solution to my need for connecting powered external speakers to my plasma TV using the optical digital output jack. Volume is adjustable, construction is very good although it is not cheap. It is my only solution.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very cool device This is the perfect little device to use with older non digital items to get the best sound with your theater system, along with Velocity™ Digital Optical cables. I called Bose and to upgrade to a new digital system was $3,000. Saved me $$$.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Exactly what I hoped for + a bit more... I bought a plasma tv that only has optical audio out. In order to listen with headphones I needed a device to translate from digital to analog to mini headphone jack. Did the job perfectly. Has other connections out for audio as well, so overall...great product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from This is the best product ever made! I had a new HDTV with digital optical output and an older model receiver with analog outputs.Would have cost me $$ to replace the receiver. The sound is great thanks to this converter.

How do you get this DAC to work with a macbook pro ? I currently am trying to get this to work with my macbook... I have speakers connected to the output jacks and the USB is connected to the macbook pro, but I do not hear anything coming out of the speakers. The mac recognizes the DAC when it is plugged in, it displays as "USB DAC" in the system prefs
Asked by: Anonymous
You need to have the USB DAC selected on the audio output setting. If you have this already checked please contact our Technical Support for further assistance.
