Works very well. Mic and Speaker sound great. Computer picks it up every time.
This works nicely. Computer picks it up every time. I haven’t had any trouble. I work from home and needed an audio out to put on my docking station. I’m very pleased with this purchase.

Unexpected Performance… Buy this if you own a MacBook, MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, Apple anything!
I ordered this a while ago but finally got around to using it after I started using Amazon Music’s HD streaming through their app. On my 2017 MacBook Pro, the audio output level to external devices such as my AKG K371 headphones has been just okay. After plugging in this easy to use device and giving it a go, I am floored at the amazing sound quality and audio reproduction. It is levels above what comes stock on my MacBook Pro, and I recommend you get it if you’re a audiophile! Listening to Fred Again – Marea (We’ve Lost Dancing) and the highs and lows are faithfully reproduced in its marvelous pro level sound quality! I did a little test to confirm I’m not hearing things so I switched back to my internal output on the MacBook Pro. The comparison is so striking and this product provides the best value for money on the market. I feel like I’m hooked in to an expensive external audio controller! So happy right now….HAPPY!!!

Good
So far so good. It works well so far. We’ll see how long it lasts.

FINALLY! A way to use my mixer for recording again!
I’ve ordered a half dozen other “adapters” just like this one, and they’ve all been… well, terrible. The TRS / TRRS audio separator version that plugs into the 3.5mm dual purpose jack on my Macbook DEFINITELY doesn’t work. Other USB versions somehow create static and are only occasionally recognized as an audio input.NOT THIS ONE. Microphone plugs into adapter, speakers plug into regular headphone jack on the Macbook and BOOM â perfect audio setup. I’ve already recorded a full podcast episode with the same quality I used to have on my old rig (with separate microphone input jack). Highly recommend this for anyone struggling with the stupidity of a single audio jack for line-in inputs.

Great..now
Maybe it’s just this one but the digital output seems ‘choppy’ and I am unable to use it. Very nicely made though!**edit**I don’t know what the problem was but it seems to work fine now. This after I bought another product..of course. But this is nice metal case, gold plated connector for USB. Having the electronics on a short cable like this takes a lot of strain off your USB port as opposed to the ‘cableless’ versions.So why did it not work before. Well, lots of variables but I changed ports, connectors, cables, etc. and I can’t seem to make it break! So I think you can ignore the previous (original) post.What I must say though is that because of my original low rating, CableCreation contacted me right away and wanted to get to the bottom of the problem. You just don’t find this very often for a <$10 product. But I sure won't hesitate to order from them again. Thanks!

Overall good, but low quality components
I’ve decided I’m keeping it, even with the quality issue, so I’m giving it 3 stars. I got this adapter so I can use my Galaxy S22 Ultra with an analog earphone set. I’m finding a “clicking” sound on the TRRS jack (the jack you’ll use for a headset with a built-in microphone). It appears to be the quality of jack itself is not the greatest. But, for the price, and considering it works well enough when using the separate mic jack, I’ll keep it. If you want to hear what the clicking sound is like, then listen to the sample video I’ve added to this review.

THE DARN THING WORKS!!!!
I didn’t expect this thing to work BUT IT DOES! My sound card on my laptop was acting up. It was going to die. It did and I plugged this in to my USB and it worked, The sound is better than my original card, I can’t say it great but it is better than before. Maybe you can buy a better one but it has a clear sharp sound, I am very pleased, Nothing to install, just plug it in. Great price too. Maybe not for audiophiles. I opened Spotify and tried some music with my BOSE earphones. It wasn’t spectacular but all right. So there you go. A cure for a dead sound card without any fuss.

Poor Audio Quality. Mic-In jack doesn’t even work
Audio is poor. Mic-In jack doesn’t work, and that was the main reason I bought this. One star for only the audio-out jack working.

Works fine. Nice to have a jack for both headphone and mic.
Tim Coleman –
Had a much older version of a c-media USB-A to audio. It worked for years and was only made obsolete with my upgrade to Windows 11.Purchased this and was immediately impressed. The construction is sturdy and the quality of materials has been improved greatly over my old one. The nylon braded cable is welcome upgrade as well.It connected immediately as soon as it was plugged in and the sound quality through the headphones and microphone is crystal clear. (At least to my untuned ears.)Super happy with my purchase and highly recommend it.

Je viens de le recevoir. Fonctionne bien avec mon micro Rode SmartLav Plus, sans dépendre d’une prise micro.A voir dans la durée.
