“Why does this item has to be plugged into an electrical outlet.”

• Unit converts analog signal to digital. All those zeros and ones needs juice. I was able to plug USB power cable into switched USB port on my Sony DH590 Receiver so it’s only on when I select “Game” on the Receiver. The rest of the time it is off.
