Cables To Go 22327 USB 5.1 Audio Adapter Reviews
finally i don't recomnded fo anyone even my enemy.Cables To Go 22327 USB 5.1 Audio Adapter A very very very bad product you can't get 5.1 if you using vista it just gives you 2.1i'm using triton ax360 5.1 headset and it just don't give you 5.1.
My theory as to the problem is this: according to Creative, the analog output must be 5.1 channel, and it must be disabled for the digital passthrough to work. I was never able to get this device to work. It has a stereo analog output for headphones, which cannot be disabled. I've given it 2 stars because it must work for someone, and I can't be sure there wasn't something else going on with my system.
I needed to go USB out to SPDIF in on the receiver. I did get fine 2 channel sound out of it, but never 5.1. The Soundblaster has its own control panel in which to enable/disable the analog. I've returned it and bought a Creative Soundblaster Live which works great. I can say with great assurance however that there are much better solutions out there. This device runs off the Generic Windows Audio driver, and does not have its own control panel.
The actual manufacturer of this device by the way, is SIIG. I don't know if the fact that the PC is running Vista had anything to do with my problem. I found getting 5.1 surround sound out of my computer and into my AV receiver to be a difficult process. Their website is almost as unhelpful as Cables to Go's.
Included is DVD software. The adapter ships with a Toslink and USB cable, the combined length of which is approximately 3m. With Windows XP the product self-installed. This product is useful if you wish to connect your laptop to your home audio system. The USB/optical interface eliminates the need of utilizing the 3.5mm mini stereo plug audio output common with inexpensive laptop computers. Any open USB port may be used.
