 Fantastic Product October 3, 2008
This adapter perfectly converts your video console's sound output to amazing 5.1, with outstanding clarity.
It's incredibly easy to use, with colour-coded inputs, and works great every time.
I definitely recommend this to anybody looking to get their gaming system into the 5.1 world.
Does what it is supposed to do October 1, 2008
Of course this doesn't give you true 5.1. You need to be sending it a 5.1 signal to get true 5.1 surround sound. You pass in a stereo signal over RCA. That's all you can pass in. It is a passive connector. Meaning it doesn't actually change the signal. The only way you can even come close to 5.1 is if you had your stereo signal hooked up to something that did Dolby ProLogic II and that only simulates 5.1. It isn't true 5.1 sound either.
In order do you what you want need something that takes in a 5.1 digital signal and outputs to the three 3.5mm cables. The Creative DDTS-100 will do this. It can also do the Dolby ProLogic II and NEO:6. Unfortunately they stopped making it and you will pay much more over the $100 retail price for it on E-Bay. Notice it costs over $100 compared to the $6.
For anybody who has a computer, they now make Dolby Digital Live sound cards which convert everything to Dolby Digital 5.1 before passing it out of the soundcard.
That being said, if you understand what you are buying this connector is a steal for the price.
SAVE MONEY !!! This little gadget can save you $100's on a surround sound system for your TV. September 30, 2008

This amazing little coupler allowed me to take my Logitech X-540 5.1 speaker sytem, generally used for video games and computers, and turn it into a complete surround sound system for my TV. You'll be happy that you only spent a few dollars for this coupler, instead of spending $100's on a surround sound system designed for your multimedia system. You really can't tell the difference!

Does just what it is supposed to do. Puts out stereo instead of 5.1 sound though.
