Customers are saying

Customers appreciate the Optical/Coaxial Digital-to-Analog Audio Converter for its great sound quality and ease of use. Many find it compatible with their existing setups, especially when HDMI is not an option, and consider it a good value for the price. The only notable drawback mentioned is the absence of a volume control feature.

    I use this with my PS4, it works perfectly, I have tried other brands (cheap) that worked for a bit, then quit. I get great sound coupled with my logitech Z323 speakers.

    The sound is good used to connect my old surround sound to a newer tv. If its 4K I just get a buzzing noise.

    A helpful Best Buy employee told us about this product when we were looking for a way to convert sound between projector and cable without having to buy an amp. Worked well!

    This was very straightforward to use. We had no analog output to feed the sound bar but this converter worked great to use the digital out that was available.

    I got this in order to use my tv thru the surround sound. This doesn't come with optical cables so you will need to buy that separate but it was easy to hook up and works great.

    Bought new TV. Needed to connect sound bar. It worked for 12 days. Then stopped. All I got was static. Did not know if it was unit or the Rocketfish cable. Had no way to test. When it worked the sound was very good but then it stopped. Best Buy seems to have a policy that if you keep it over 15 days then you are stuck with it. Mine stopped within the period but I did return it on the 15th day. Have no idea if it was unit or Rocketfish cable? There does seem to be a problem with the Rocketfish cable that connects to TV in that it comes out of the unit and bends and does not go easily into TV and places pressure on both TV and the converter unit. If the store had been able to tell me if it was the unit or Rocketfish I would have kept what did work and replaced the broken part but store did not want or be able to test.

    It works just like they said it would. I never realized that today's TVs and Stereos use a fiber optic cable basically that's what it was so I was informed by the salesman there and how to hook it up and they were right.
