5.0 out of 5 starsDoes exactly what it says on the tin
By Frightful Bish on 12 May 2012
Model Number: AU-38 Verified Purchase
Given that this gizmo was about half the price of similar products it was no surprise to find that it is a very anonymous little box with only the ubiquitous "Made in China" label to indicate its origins. Nonetheless it is solidly built and came surprisingly well packaged in a sturdy, glossy cardboard box with a plastic insert to hold the unit and separate it from the supplied power pack. The power pack itself is one of those all-in-one jobs with an integral UK mains plug (no adapter needed!) and a useful metre or so of low-voltage cable to connect to the converter. The box also contains a tiny eight page user guide in perfectly readable English.

In my case I wanted to connect the optical digital audio output from an Xbox 360 to my hi-fi amplifier in order to get the best sound when using the Xbox for DVDs and CDs, but clearly it could just as easily be used for satellite or cable TV set-top boxes or dedicated DVD or CD players with optical outputs.

This was my first venture into TosLink territory so I was prepared for trouble but in fact there was really nothing to be too scared of, save one little snag which I'll come on to shortly.

There are two standard colour-coded RCA phono sockets for the audio output which I simply connected to the one of the inputs of my trusty old amplifier: easy job.

There are also two inputs, one optical TosLink which I used and an digital coaxial (which I didn't). I used XO Digital Optical Cable 2m / 2 Metre Premium Install Series - suitable for PS3, Sky, Sky HD, LCD, LED, Plasma, Blu-ray, Home Cinema Systems, AV Amps for the optical connection.Read more ›

1.0 out of 5 starsHigh pitched hiss
By BrianT on 2 Jun. 2013
Model Number: AU-38 Verified Purchase
It works well... as it should, and as expected... And is cheaper than some alternatives.

However if I'm playing quiet music or audiobooks, there is a very audible hiss coming from all the speakers. It's so annoying that I'm not able to use this product- I tried for a few days but just got annoyed and started concentrating on the hiss more than the music I should have been listening to.

I bought a replacement from Maplin for almost double the price, however there is no hiss so I am happy.

I had thrown away the packaging when I unpacked the item so didn't have it so didn't return.

I have no problems with the vendor- very good delivery time, and appropriately packaged.

5.0 out of 5 starsHeadsets
By DaveK on 25 Oct. 2012
Model Number: AU-38 Verified Purchase
I went to plug in my headset to my new Samsung SmartTV and was devastated to find that it only had a standard jack which cut out the sound when used. I purchased the Toslink Converter and lead more in hope than anticipation but was delighted to find that it works perfectly and I can now listen to programs at the volume my not so good hearing can hear while my wife listens to the TV at a volume that doesn't broadcast to the village.

5.0 out of 5 starsWorks perfectly for Xbox One
By Sam Thompson on 25 Feb. 2014
Model Number: AU-38 Verified Purchase
Like a lot of people I was left stumped by the fact that my (admittedly old) Turtle Beach X11 headset wouldn't work with the Xbox One as it had switched to completely digital (HDMI/Optical). I was about to bite the bullet and order a new headset when I came across this, and it works perfectly.

Simply buy this, and an Optical cable (about £3, if that), hook everything up and you are good to go. Sound is great, obviously cannot check chat as the chat adapter isn't out yet, but game sound is just as good, if not slightly better than it was on the 360. Unless you are using the One as an excuse to get a fancy new headset, this will solve all your problems. It does use a separate power source though, so make sure you have a socket free near your TV!

1.0 out of 5 starsHigh frequency ringing
By Theo on 21 Aug. 2012
Model Number: AU-38 Verified Purchase
This product has two jobs: convert digital optical audio to analog audio, and do so with reasonable signal to noise ratio.

After several hours use it begins to make a high frequency ringing sound on the output. I unplugged it and left it and then tried again and this time it produced the ringing straight away. With amp volume set to the normal level you'd listen to audio at, the ringing is completely audible when no other sound is played.

5.0 out of 5 starsDigital to Analogue Converter.
By Keithgadget on 5 Jun. 2013
Model Number: AU-38 Verified Purchase
Simple to install excellent result with no sound complications as mentioned in some reviews. Just followed the simple instructions and the sound from our TalkTalk YouView box is now connected to our Bose speakers via a Simple Skytronic amplifier with great results. £11.45 purchase cost is a snip. Looks exactly like other products costing 3 times the price. Might just try to be clever and connect the 5 volt DC power supply to the Youview USB using an appropriate USB cable to get rid of the power adapter. Can easily recommend this to anyone wishing to connect their new device that only has digital outputs to an analogue sound system in a smaller room where surround sound is not so important. (Our Blu-ray movies sound much better now.)Digital Optical Coaxial Toslink to Analog RCA Audio Converter - Digital to Analogue Audio Converter - TOSlink / Coaxial to Stereo Left/Right RCA--UK Plug

5.0 out of 5 starsExcellent item
By Steve Sweetland on 21 Nov. 2012
Model Number: AU-38 Verified Purchase
Was looking at others available on amazon, and saw that someone had said about this item 'MAKES A HIGH PITCHED NOISE'. Visually, the item was so similar to more expensive items, but it was at time of purchase, £15 cheaper than the others. I figured I'd take a punt on it and see what happens - thinking I can always return it.

No need to return it - it does the job brilliantly.

I was able to reproduce the 'HIGH PITCHED NOISE' that someone complained about, but it was simply down to the fact that no optical signal was being sent. This can happen if your audio source is off.

Simple fix, only turn onto the audio channel on your amp when the audio source is on.

Overall, cant fault the thing - it does the job I needed it to.
