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 am using this converter from Samsung Smart TV to SONY wireless stereo headphone model NDR-RF985R with good quality sound. So npw I can watch tv without high volume sound to disturbing family members at home.

    Purchased a karaoke system and needed this converter to convert the output sound from my tv to my Yamaha speakers. Haven't had any issues and works like a charm.

    Could use better instructions for users not familiar with the type of cords used. The cords had protective covers on them that appeared to be part of their construction, so it was not obvious that something had to be removed. Neither the converter, nor the required cord had any instructions indicating anything had to be removed from the cord before plugging in, and the diagrams in the instructions were so primitive, it was not clear anything needed to be removed. Even the associate at the store did not realize this to be the case until he had worked with the product for a period of time.

    Sometimes you will have to unplug and plug back in the power supply for it if there is no audio on it. Other than that, when it does work, the stereo audio is clean.

    I have this connected to my 65" Samsung TV. It only has an optical output for audio. I cannot be certain where the problem lies if it the TV, or the converter. When I am on Netflix or Prime, I only get a loud noise from my audio receiver. That is why I gave it only 4 stars. If it is not the converter then it would be 5 stars.

    Converted my digital audio from my new 75 inch to analog so I can use my 20 watt per channel receiver purchased in 1978 to power my TV's sound system. Sounds great.

    The converter was exactly as represented. All components were there and appeared to be of high quality. I ended up not having to use the converter, but kept it for future use.

    My husband wears hearing aids and has a wireless device which enables him to hear TV sound directly thru his devices and means I can have the volume on the TV set for my comfort level. New TV does Not have the correct outlet for his wireless device. As a result, in order to go from the cable box to the DVR, it was necessary to move his device cable from one to the other. In addition, he was unable to take advantage of any of the apps on the TV - Netflix, Amazon Prime, etc. Fortunately, the Best Buy folks were able to work with me to find a solution. Enter this nifty product! Was extremely simple to install with the purchased-separately cable. Now we can both enjoy watching and listening to our new television comfortably without moving cables.

    I have an older TV that doesn't have great sound, so I purchased a sound bar & needed the converter to connect it. Now have great sound & have had no problems with the converter.

    Whoever invented this either had a frustrating day hooking up their electronics or knows someone that did - this solves the problem for only a few $s.
