This external sound card enhances the audio capabilities of a desktop or laptop computer by providing up to 7.1 channels of audio through a single USB port. It supports various output configurations including 7.1, 5.1, and 2-channel audio using 3.5mm jacks, a headphone port, line-in, and stereo microphone inputs. The device is ideal for users looking to upgrade their system's audio quality for home theater setups, gaming, or multimedia presentations.
The sound card supports both analog and digital audio output, allowing for stereo to 7.1 channel applications. It features SPDIF digital output for high-quality audio playback at 48KHz and SPDIF optical input passthrough for two-channel audio at the same sampling rate. This makes it suitable for connecting to external audio devices that support digital audio formats.
Designed for ease of use, the sound card includes volume controls and mute buttons on the device itself. It is compatible with Windows 7, 8.1, and 10 operating systems and supports plug-and-play installation. The included software allows users to select different audio outputs easily, making setup straightforward for most users.
The device comes with a 1-meter USB cable and is backed by a 2-year warranty and free lifetime technical support. It is a cost-effective upgrade from built-in sound cards, offering high-quality audio without the need for internal installation. However, it should be noted that the SPDIF optical pass-through port only supports two-channel audio and not 5.1 or 7.1 formats.
