I read a lot of comments for this device. It does work as expected, and really well, better than my motherboards spdif because of the 5.1 channel output with dolby digital. Do NOT install the software this comes with from the CD, it is the wrong driver! Also the driver doesn't auto install, it uses some generic driver for USB audio. To get the full potential of this device you must download CM6206 LX driver. I found this driver from Softpedia. The CD comes with the non-LX driver that doesn't work properly. I would have gave this 5 stars if it did. I went to device manager in windows and found the USB sound device under the Sound, video and game controllers. I right clicked it from here then went to properties and then drivers and update drivers. The zip file I got from softpedia I extracted to a folder and this is the folder I have selected for the driver. It should say C-MEDIA ELECTRONICS INC. as the digital signer. Important note is that I didn't run the software installation setup this zip file came with due to potential compatibility issues with windows 11, since the software was made for windows 8. Hope someone finds this helpful!

El producto cumple en cuanto que si trasmite en 5.1 canales, pero con formatos limitados, y se desconfigura muy facil y se complica demaciado hacer que funcione de nuevo. En cuanto a la entrega, llego antes de lo programado y la presentación fue tal como la anunciaron

El producto trata de cumplir lo que promete, sin embargo es algo dificil de configurar para Windows 10. Peor aún, requiere controladores que vienen en un CD... ¡Un CD! Ya es rara la computadora que tiene ese tipo de lector. La página de soporte técnico para descargar los controladores es engorrosa y mal traducida del Chino al Inglés. Es muy dificil configurar las bocinas y es muy fácil que la tarjeta se desconfigure

El producto no me dió los 5.1 canales como lo esperaba, ya que por lo menos en Windows 10 Pro no me convenció del todo su salida del audio, no escuchaba una buena calidad, apesar de la configuración del dispositivo a 5.1

My use case: I have a KVM to share all of my inputs and outputs between my home desktop computer and my work computer's Thunderbolt dock. Unfortunately my gaming desktop's sound system is a multiple 3.5mm 5.1 setup, which even if the KVM accommodated audio at all (which it doesn't, apart from via DisplayPort), KVMs that do share sound usually have just one 3.5mm jack.This external sound card was the right solution. It has inputs for exactly what I need plus additional possibilities that I don't have but someone else might. On Windows 10 and 11 at least, just plugging it into a USB port immediately makes it into either THE audio output or a selectable option with no driver installation necessary. That was critical because the work computer is completely locked down and won't allow installation of drivers or other software. I just needed to see that this is the default audio device, and from then on, it's all good to go. When I dock the laptop, Windows 11 sees the docking arrangement and automatically reconfigures everything to default to it while on the dock. Both computers see it as the full 5.1 setup that I have and it works exactly that way. Sound quality seems at least as good as the on-board Realtek audio that my desktop computer has, though my 52 year old ears are much less sharp than my 25 year old ears were and I'm less apt to notice subtle sound quality differences, plus my 10 year old mid-level Logitech speaker setup never was audiophile quality. I'd guess if you have higher end speakers and are used to a high quality dedicated add-on sound card, this will probably not be an equivalent. For the rest of us, it works great.The price was very good for what I got, especially considering how few of this kind of device showed up when I was looking. There were lots of them for regular 2 channel sound but were quite scarce for more complex inputs. I've had it for a few months now and it's still working flawlessly. As an alternative to using a second switchbox just for the audio, I enjoy the ability to have this as just another item on the USB that is handled by the KVM and a single KVM button switching everything from one system to the other. I do recommend this if your needs are similar to mine.

The quick setup and sound clarity made my old speakers new again. Connected this to an Android box with the optical option, which picked it up right away in the sound settings and I started listening to crisp and clear sounds right away. I did have to install a small/free volume control app to be able to turn down the sound.

Many new PCs no longer have multichannel built-in sound adapters. This external adapter is perfect if you need a connection with analog stereo input / output.
