NEWCARE Digital Optical Splitter 1 in 3 Out,SPDIF Toslink Digital Optical Audio Cable Splitter 1x3 Support LPCM2.0 Doldy Digital & DTS 5.1 for Xbox,PS4,PS5,DVD,TV Box,Home Theatre, Receiver,Sound Bar

I wanted the option of using 2 different amplifier/speaker line-ups from our living-room Smart-TV's SPDIF O/P. Got this NEWCARE 1 in 3 out Optical audio-splitter, and routed my smart TV audio O/P through that splitter to my Sony ULT TOWER 9AC and BOSS Gigcaster 8 (the 3rd O/P is unused at present). There's no signal loss even when both the split O/P are active, although I'll be using one line at any given time. This way I use the Sony ULT TOWER 9AC for Karaoke - with the option for scale/pitch-change. The BOSS Gigcaster 8 (mixer and effects-processor) is used mostly when I play any instruments (Guitar, Harmonica, Sax, etc...). Overall, simple/easy connections - for achieving the best of both worlds - in my case. BTW, I've connected the Splitter's USB cord to my smart-TV's USB power source. This way it gets powered ON only when I turn ON my Smart-TV. This device is well-made, compact, and provides the intended signal-split.

機能に問題なしで光デジタルの拡張が簡単でした。コスパも良かったです。

Excelente, funciona muy bien, lo uso para conectar 2 sistemas de audio y unos audífonos, todo lo que se conecte se puede usar al mismo tiempo

I have a Samsung OLED (90C) that does actually have an analog audio output (3.5mm) but it is very noisy, producing lots of squelching from EM interference. This tv also has optical audio output and can even use USB DACs. I had settled on using a Schiit DAC to send audio from the TV to my soundbar, but periodically the tv wouldn't detect the DAC and would then switch back to internal speakers, which was frustrating. Other times, it would send a horrifying, loud screech to the DAC which was then passed to the soundbar. I couldn't use the optical output for my soundbar because that was going to my Sennheiser wireless tv headphones (TR185, which are awesome). However, optical still seemed to be the best output option on this tv in terms of reliability and signal quality. I guess there's also eARC, which in my experience is endlessly flaky, and I needed all my HDMI ports for other things. All of that is to say, this little box solved my issues. I power it from the usb port on the TV, and it splits the tv's optical output to the Sennhesier headphones and my soundbar. I can use both simultaneously if I want, sound quality is great, and everything stays in sync. Of course, this box won't help anyone wanting HDMI audio for Atmos or other cutting edge surround formats, but I'm limited to stereo through the headphones or soundbar, which I use for space-saving reasons, so in my case it's perfect. I tuck it back behind a shelf and its out of sight, out of mind. My only gripe is that it has no visible indicator that it's working; no LED or anything. But if you are getting sound, that means it's working. We'll see if it is made to last!

It's a basic KVM switch. It has been plugged in for 4 hours now so too soon to tell how reliable it is, but so far the little it does do it does very well. If I could give 4.5 I would, but err on the side of 5. Read on... The Pros: - Fast switching: The switch keeps the HDMI ports open on the inactive PC, so it thinks there is a monitor connected. When you switch PCs, the switch is very quick. You don't have to wait for the graphics card to negotiate terms with the monitor, because this is retained between sessions. Sounds trivial, but most switches will not do this, and it can take 30s or more to stabilise the display after switching. This switch scores 10/10 for this. Since I switch between my personal and work laptops many times during the day, it really adds up. - Low profile: Having the ports all in a single row means they can fit it is a slimmer box. It fits really easily in the cable holder under my desk. - Power plug at the back: This sounds stupid but it irritates me. I like only have cables on the front of a device that need to be there. I don't know where this trend of putting power sockets on the front came from but this design gets a bonus point for that. - Many ways to switch. They really threw the door open on this one, with keyboard shortcuts, a button on the device and an IR remote. - General solidness of construction and operation: Its in a solid metal box, with a nice grain-textured finished. You turn it on and it works. When you switch, the action is solid and stable. The keyboard integration works well, but is a bit irritating (see Cons below). Everything it says it does, it does well. If/when it dies, I'll come back and edit this. If you're reading this, it is still running. Cons - Keyboard shortcut blocks Ctrl+Shift+Anything: This is very annoying. Many of the tools I use for work (and sometimes at home) use Ctrl+Shift shortcuts, and these are no longer available to me. Disabling shortcuts with Ctrl+Shift+K disables the shortcuts, but doesn't enable Ctrl+Shift. The workaround to this is to plug the keyboard into a non-keyboard USB port, and this effectively disables the shortcuts and I can still use the keyboard. This is where it would have lost half a star. - No power brick or HDMI cables. At this price point, I think you need to manage your expectations. Regardless of the cons above, I am very happy with this switch. It works very well, and if I'd paid double for it I would probably be writing the same review (but maybe dropped it to a 4).
