This was much better than expected! It works great! However, my friend said that when I connect my microphone jack, from my headset into the device, I am a little quiet when speaking. I had to connect the mic jack into my front analog port, and afterwards, I sounded normal. However, when it comes to my headphones from my headset, I connect that head jack into the device and it sounds great!

The headphone jack on my computer shorted out, and I bought this hoping it would be a cheap fix, and if not I was only out $2. Well, this has proven to be worse than my lowest expectations. Very loud white noise/static is heard constantly and unit will turn off inexplicably. Physically, it's plastic case came separated when I was removing it from the USB slot. This is the cheapest of the cheap electronics and has no use as I see it. I would return it, but return shipping is more than the unit. I know the price is tempting, but you are just throwing the money away with this thing.

I use mine to connect my android tv box to my surround sound system. I first used used a A/V jack but the HDMI port takes over the A/V once connected. So the external sound card was my best option

Bought this for my work laptop since my mic jack seems to have died. Tried it out for a while to listen to music and to record my voice. Seems to work just fine for what I need so far. I don't know how long it will last and will updated my review if it breaks in the near future. I'll get a chance to use it soon for hangout meetings in the coming weeks, so hopefully it holds up for me.

My headphone jack on my desktop computer was broken so I got one of these. It worked great for a few weeks, but I think this particular design of a USB sound adapter is a problem if you're using it on a device that you have to constantly plug and unplug it as on a desktop or laptop. It stopped working suddenly and I realized the USB connector end just gave out. The stress of plugging it in obviously puts stress on the soldering joints to the circuit board inside and it became loose and wiggles around instead of being firmly in place as it was. I do have a soldering iron but I'm just an amateur that only plays around with it and these are tiny soldering joints, so it's not really worth trying. Maybe if you're using it for other applications where you rarely ever have to unplug it, it would be fine, but if you're using it where you have to give up your headphones for the external speakers often, I definitely wouldn't recommend this particular DESIGN of adapter. I replaced it with one that has a short cable between the USB end and the casing that holds the internal circuit board relieving any stress to the soldering joints. I have no doubt that the replacement should last much longer, and those are just as cheap as these "3D sound" adapters. Read full review

outer blue covers came off during gentle install into USB port. A couple dabs of super glue (or a wrap of tape) fixes that. Sound is great considering the price. an easy way to get sound on a PC that need it.

The audio jack on my mac mini went out. Tried everything possible to make it work to no avail. Found this item on ebay and decided to try it out compared to the cost of another mac mini or the cost of repairing the audio jack. changed a little thing on my audio settings and BANG! it works!. My audio signal came back alive. Give it a try, its awesome.

Was trying to add another microphone jack to a cheap computer that I purchased and this works amazingly well.

Get your super glue ready. I read the reviews and I was prepared. The second it arrived I tested it and the case came right off. As I expected. So I glued the darn thing together. Then I plugged it in. It was recognized immediately. Then I plugged my headphones in and played music. It sounded like crap. Then I pulled the headphones out a little and it sounded amazing, for the price. This isn't a 100 dollar sound card. But it sure works. Just know what you're buying. If you want something that will always work and last a lifetime, this is not for you. Make sure you know what you want.

I am using this on my Mac Pro workstation, and I hate to say this, but w headphones and iTunes, it sounds as good as my Dragonfly on my Windows media machine. The price is stupid low, it should not sound this good. Highly recommended.
