Review of - Easycel Audio Digital to Analog Converter DAC with 3.5mm Jack, Optical SPDIF Toslink Coaxial to Analog Stereo L/ R Converter Adapter with Optical Cable and Power Adapter for PS3 PS4 XBox DVD Roku---YAY! This works.This product comes with everything needed to connect the TOSlink digital audio output on a new HDTV to the stereo audio inputs on your older analog, stereo Audio Receiver system.-This product includes the TOSlink cable you need to plug into your HDTV. This product also includes the AC to 5V DC power transformer needed as well.-Note, I chose this vendor - Easycel - over the other, otherwise, identical units being sold on amazon, because this one comes with the AC/DC transformer for power, and the needed TOSlink cable, which the sellers of some similar units on amazon don't seem to be including with their package.-The installation of this converter box takes just a couple minutes. First turn off your HDTV and your Audio Receiver. Then, plug the TOSlink cable (fiber optic) into the HDTV digital audio output. Then then plug the cable's other end into the TOSlink digital jack on the converter box. Next, plug the analog RCA stereo cable you were using previously to connect to your Audio Receiver's stereo analog input, into the RCA jacks on the other side of the converter box. Then plug the 5V DC power transformer into a 120V socket and the other end into the converter. Lastly, turn on your Audio Receiver and your HDTV. On the HDTV settings, select digital audio output, with PCM encoding. Voila, you now have stereo audio from the HDTV into and out of your analog stereo Audio Receiver.-Keep in mind that this converter box WILL NOT provide all the 5.1 or 7.1 digital audio channels from the HDTV as analog audio channels. This converters steps down and composites the audio to just two stereo analog audio channels.-For a little over ten bucks, this 2 inch by 2 inch little box, makes it possible to keep using an existing analog stereo Audio Receiver for sound from an HDTV. There are those of us who enjoy the creamy sound from our vintage (and now quite pricey) collector's item McIntosh Stereo Audio Receivers and Klipsch horn speakers (check out the draw dropping prices of those these days on amazon, which decades ago were affordable, but now require a millionaire's budget).-Ironically, the HDTV companies could have kept an analog stereo audio output pair on their HDTVs for a buck or two, but it seems that for some reason they are all needlessly skimping on the dollar or two that would cost them. Maybe they are in league with the Audio Receiver companies to force us to buy more gear. Thankfully, however, these inexpensive converter boxes save the day.-Although the converter box comes with a small instruction pamphlet, the unit is so obvious, and so easy to connect, that instructions are not required.-Enjoy!

Got this cause I did not like the way I was getting sound from Amazon music thru my PC. I was running a line from the analog mini plug out to a Y splitter with RCA plugs into my vintage receiver. So I now hooked up an RCA heavy duty cable from the Digital coaxial of the pc into this little gadget and then out to my receiver and the sound has improved significantly. Small investment for a great improvement in sound.

Quick shipping, easy to do business with. I have not yet used this product, but I have opened and inspected the device and feel confident that it will perform as advertised, when needed. I'm glad that the AC adapter and the TOSLINK optical cable are provided, so it will be easy to install.

Most t vs do not come with RCA connections that Is headphones require. I bought a pair of high-end headphones wireless for my mother about 6 years ago and that TV that she had then happened to have RCA audio out Connections. Today she has a larger flat screen TV and it does not have the RCA connactions and I had to resort to the very small headphone Jack in the back of the TV which cut about 3/4 of the sound out and so I bought this product and plugged it into the back of her TV where it says digital audio out and it conveit did it to RCA connections And the headphones are loud and clear and this is a great product I highly recommend

worked great and passed through sound with quality, but died after 2 years of only occasional use.

The 3.5mm jack on my ASRock X570 Taichi motherboard bit the dust. I never unplug the cable, so I guess the tabs inside the port began to fatigue and stretched to the point where they don't make good contact anymore, causing my right channel to stop working completely. Whatever. I still needed both channels to work.With optical, I know I can't fatigue the port again and I won't need a ground loop isolator. This converter got my 2.1 setup working again and I couldn't be happier. Doesn't get hot and it just works right out of the box.Very happy with my purchase!

As soon as I plugged in the power supply to the unit, it emitted a high pitched whine. When I hooked it all up to my amplifier, the whine got louder and no sound came out. I wasn't sure what wasn't working and tried playing a CD. That didn't work either. I ordered a new unit of a different brand that had a USB power supply. That one all worked fine. When I used the USB from that unit to power the Easycel unit, it played well too. It seems like the same components are sold under different names, which seems common for lots of things in China. A good working power supply costs a dollar more than the Easycel DAC. If the power supply worked, it would be big savings, but it didn't.
