Simple to install as I already had a digital fiber optic cable to connect my new LG TV to the converter. Converter comes with RCA cables but not the fiber optic cable. Fiber optic cable did not come with the TV. I had it from a DVD purchase many years ago but never used it. When buying this item make sure you have or buy the fiber optic cable. Worked perfect without any issues in my setup. Stereo sound added to TV fills the room like being at a concert.

the converter works great and was easy to connect the digital optical output on the tv to my home stereo.

I got this so I could take the digital audio from my TV and feed it into my old analog stereo receiver which only had RCA analog inputs. It was an inexpensive way to improve the tv sound without having to get a soundbar or update to an AVR. All inclusive kit makes it easy.

i bought this as a deal of the day $20 plus got more off with my BB rewards ... so price was a pretty good deal that BB made me buy this , ha ... i originally had another brand ,, and it worked and didn't work ... but then i didn't read up on why ,, i just hooked it up .... and then left it .. so you see in my photo now both audio converters that i have .. and this time as of now ,, i spent the time and effort to play and test and see how this is and researched how these things work .. and now i found that both converters that i have ,,, each work just fine and as designed ... which really just connects the audio with different connectors all together as a pass-thru ... now if you continue to read my review here ,, i will now give you tips ,, first ,, new tv and new bluray players and 4k players ,,, etc. can give you great sound with digital w/surround ... and of course your old audio receiver can't play that ... so you need to reset your tv or player to put out PCM audio ,,,, which is just 2 channel audio and not the multi-channel audio ... and these converters will work great ...when you switch to PCM ,, it just takes all the multi 5.1 7.1 etc .. and pass all channels combined into just 2 channels left and right for your old receiver .. i can go into more on audio quality and types ,, but you now need to research that yourself ...so my next tip is to help all you who may think it does not work with your system .. so this is what i easily see or hear when i first just hooked it up .... and what i describe will be very basic simple ,,, if you are getting static and noise out of your stereo system with the converter ,, it will likely be your tv output or player is putting out a digital audio signal ,, thus the noise static and not audio ... if you then reset your tv-player to output PCM audio ,,, i bet it will then work ... and if you donna hear anything ,, that means there is no audio signal being passed by the converter ..

Definitely works and recommended. Best bang for your buck with this device. Exceptional for needing your sound played out of older tvs and speakers where other connect isnt possible.

This is the converter I needed to hook up my old school 25 year old , gigantic, ancient sub woofer. It was easy to hook up and I had it thumping and shaking the ground in just a few minutes.

This worked amazingly with my dad's old AV receiver (no digital inputs) to the TV. Converts all digital to analog flawlessly. No issues with sound and seems to convert at 24/192khz bit rate.

Marrying the optical output of our new television with my trusted analog amp was exactly what I wanted. This device was super easy to set up and we now enjoy television audio through some great, classic speakers! This is an ideal solution to take digital audio to analog output devices. I used a Rewards Certificate that basically covered the tax on the purchase.

I did some research on how to connect my TV that didn't have the access to connect to speaker using the out coaxial port. This converter made it possible for my family and I to enjoy surround sound in a matter of minutes (it was so easy to connect this device to my TV and the surround sound bar) in the comforts of our own home. I was searching so hard and Bestbuy had what I was looking for at a decent price. Thank you

My digital audio tape (DAT) machine has risen from the dead. The device has unlocked my DAT MACHINE and now I can revisit my music from last century! Take that Dr. Frankenstein!

I had some high quality speakers that a bit aged to say the least and I was able to use them on my Xbox entertainment center just perfectly. I’m very glad this adapter exists.

Took one star away because the instructions don't mention the fact this DOESN'T work on all optical audio settings. You have to manually go into your TV (or wherever the audio is coming from, and in my case a TV) and be sure to set the optical audio to PCM. Mine was on auto and that wasn't working. All I was hearing was a super fast ticking noise. Everything is working good now that I set it to PCM. I have an LG tv & wasn't able to find the PCM setting under 'sound'. I had to scroll down to 'all settings' then click on 'sound' once again... Just a long drawn way to get to where I needed to be.

The Insignia Optical/ Coaxial Digital to Analog Converter saved me over $300+. Here’s how: I own an older 5.1 audio system and recently bought a new 4K HDTV which doesn’t have / support RCA red & white audio without going optical cable out from tv through this device to the stereo. I researched this product online and bought it along with a 4 ft optical cable. Everything works great. Only reason I give it four stars instead of five is due to using multiple remotes to switch sources for audio to work.

Great gadget, if you have an older receiver this will will help you with your problems.

Made using my Google Max Speaker really easy. Connects with an breeze.

Use this for the newer TVs that don't have an analog audio out jack (headphone jack) - has to connect to an AV receiver or some other source, but this truly works. A bit if popping noise from time to time; that's the only reason for a 4-star vs 5-star. Great item overall - I highly recommend it.

Great product. easy to set up. audio cable included

Had no way to get sound to my Bluetooth speakers from the older model TV I have, but with just the digital optical output, I was able to hook up sound and Music for my television

A must have for new TV’s that only have optical out make sure to adjust your audio delay on tv so your sound is in sync with your receiver

Took me awhile to figure out my issue with my surround sound system, finally figured it out and you guys was the only one to have in stock. Good job.
