Got audio gear that doesn't quite connect?

This little LINDY converter box is a problem-solver.

Basically, it converts digital audio signals between two common types: Toslink (optical, that square-ish connector with a red light) and coaxial SPDIF (that looks like a single RCA plug, usually orange).

So, if your new soundbar only has an optical input but your old DVD player only has a coaxial digital output, this box bridges the gap.

It works both ways: optical to coaxial OR coaxial to optical.

It has both input and output ports for each type, so you can connect the cables accordingly.

It supports standard uncompressed stereo digital audio (PCM).

It comes with a 5V DC power adapter that should work in multiple countries, which is handy.

Just note, you'll need to provide your own Toslink and coaxial cables to connect your devices.

It's a small, simple device (about 46x46x24mm) that does one job and does it well.

If you're into home theater or audio setups and have ever been stuck with mismatched connections, this converter is an affordable and reliable fix.

LINDY is a known brand for cables and adapters, and they offer a 2-year warranty on this, which is nice.
