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.

    Had to get a new TV, existing receiver still has the red/yellow/white cable connections-never fails! Glad Best Buy still sells the converters, since I know they're all about current stuff, latest & greatest. But not everyone can afford the replace EVERY component when one goes out.

    I purchased a new TV and after, noticed it only had optical output. My surround sound only RCA input. This converter solved that problem. No issues so far.

    did not work

    the one i purchased would not power "on". So i returned it. Seems like a pretty bad device design that you can't tell if it's this device or its power adaptor because the accompanying power adaptor doesn't have a light to tell you if it is working. Which part was broken? Who knows? But the pair together would not turn "on" so got returned.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Much needed part to be able to use existing sound bar on new TV. Bit expensive but liked the tone of the sound bar so did not want to replace it.

    I recently upgraded my TV, which of course has new and different methods for cable connections than my old rear projection TV had. Using this converter allowed me to use my existing in-wall RCA audio cabling that runs a long ways to my receiver. I am sure that running a digital optical cable to my receiver would be best, however I was not able to tell a difference in the quality of sound when I did a comparison test. This was a good solution that fit my needs.

    My receiver did not have optic inputs, my tv did not have rca outs, this allowed me to still have decent sound until I have a chance to replace the receiver.
