SABRENT USB to AUX Adapter, External USB Sound Card with 3.5mm Jack for Headphones & Mic, Plug & Play Stereo Converter for PC, Mac, PS5, Steam Deck, Laptop (AU-MMSA)

This device saved my life and whole load of stress. As many currently are doing, I work from home on a laptop, setup to connect securely to my works computer network. As a Quality Analyst, I require the use of headphones and sound card to listen to agent calls as the primary task. Then to my horror, the sound card or sound chip built in to the laptop motherboard, stopped working. Windows 10 was less than useless as ever at giving any indication of this, it kept saying it was not plugged in, which of course was not the issue. Anyway, I was in a real dilemma and thought I would perform a quick search on Amazon to see if there were any solutions, and I found this external USB sound card. I was dubious I have to say that this would work or that it was even a sound card itself, I thought it would end up being an adapter to plug in headphones or speakers but not fix the problem. I was wrong, it plugged in, Windows immediately detected it as a USB sound device, it was working in seconds perfectly, replacing my onboard sound device. This product is of high quality, great sound quality and has bot a line out for speakers or headphone and a line in for a microphone if you require it. Excellent and thank you for saving my life!!

it work's great and was delivered promptly

Upon learning to DJ i found out i needed a soundcard so i can hear the music in my headphones and the current track playing on my laptop. I went on a DJ forum and asked them what would be best and when i told them about this one, i remember a few laughing and saying it won't last long and the quality of the audio will be poor. But i thought you know what, the reviews on here are that it does the job and it's affordable where a guy on the dj forum recommended me to get a audio interface worth £80 on here but i thought thats way to much when all i wanna do is set up in my bedroom, have a play at mixing and if i like it then buy a controller to dj on with my laptop. They didnt understand this and why i brought something cheap. But to anyone who wants to DJ from their laptop at home and doesnt yet have a kontroller then forget the people who say it won't be any good. This is quality and it would be a 5 star only reason it isn't the natural progression is a controller so i wont need it soon. But yes get it. The audio is really good!

I've literally only just received this item, so can't comment on durability just yet. As for the device itself I can't fault it. Nicely packaged and easy to install. Using Windows 10 I plugged into a spare USB and within a second or two I was up and running. I bought this for my 6 month old HP laptop as the built in auto sensing headphone socket it useless. Once this had installed I simply went to the Windows Sound window (In Windows 10 hit your start key and then just type sound. It should be the first item that comes up. Right click on the device and select 'Set as default device'. That should ensure that whenever you plug this device in your computer will prioritise it for audio. A for sound quality I was quite impressed! I wasn't expecting a massive amount to be fair giving the purchase price (£5.99 with free Prime delivery) but it sounds great, and has plenty of volume when listening via headphones. I can't comment on the quality of the input as yet, as I have nothing to plug into it, but I can see that it is a true mic input, ie not line level, as is only mono. Probably perfect if you wanted to plug a headset in for skype or gaming. The only thing I would say is that due to the width of the device (which is justified as it has 2 x 3.5mm jack sockets in it) you would struggle to plug a device into an adjacent USB socket on a laptop. Worth bearing in mind if you have limited USB sockets or have a lot of devices to plug in. I should imagine that if you use a USB hub this wouldn't be as much of an issue. I shall be trying this out over the next week or so and then probably be buying another one to ease connectivity when i'm at my desk in work.

Sabrent are on to a winner with these, they're superb little devices. The headphone output is clean and free of unwanted noise and usage requires no additional drivers. The microphone input is similarly good quality and provides a good +5 Volts to energise mic capsules, meaning you can happily use this with a ModMic (as I do). No nonsense involving psychoacoustic "3D surround sound" nonsense, no bullshit features or unnecessary design - this is a simple 2x2 USB audio interface, and it's very well engineered. Its small profile means you can use it almost anywhere without blocking other USB ports. It can be a snug fit sometimes to connect a USB cable in an adjacent port, as the width of the black part is on the edge of acceptable, but you can make it work. I use one of these on my main PC. Despite it having a premium Asus gaming motherboard, its onboard sound chipset - and the poor circuit design - causes loads of EM interfaces. £6.99 later, a Sabrent gives me excellent quality sound output almost indistinguishable from a much more expensive audio interface I use for music production. I also use a Sabrent on my work laptop and again, It Just Works. Inarguably useful. They're not indestructible, but they are very well made. Recently, someone managed to BEND one of mine by dragging a heavy table past my PC, and the table leg snagged against the Sabrent plugged into it. Remarkably, despite now looking quite broken, both headphone and microphone still worked. (I've since retired the broken adapter to the WEEE skip in the sky). If you use a ModMic, or a headset mic with a powered capsule, buy one of these. Antlion Audio manufacture their own branded equivalent of these, but it's vastly more expensive and frankly, probably identical in quality.

It is great and everything works. However, for some reason it seems that it makes me sound extremely quiet when I chat with friends in voice chat. Yes, my input volume was at 100% and they could still barely hear me. Switched back to my old one and I sounded fine again according to them. Yes, I also tried restarting discord and my whole pc but no changes. But other than that, it works fine!

Overview: I bought this to work with the Neewer NW-700 . I bought that a few days ago and had it plugged into a 2009 iMac. Unfortunately, it wouldn’t pick up decent sound volume from the microphone when it was plugged into the headphone jack or into the line in jack. • The description details how its driverless requiring no extra software. • It was also listed as often bought with the NW-700. • Finally it lists as working with Mac so I thought I would take a punt and try it. Disclaimer: I don’t know what I’m doing, I really don’t! Hopefully if you don’t know what you’re doing either, then this review helps! Packaging: As in the pictures, a very simple package with some instructions, a thick foam mount to hold the adapter in and thats about it. First Impressions: There really isn't much to it. It seems well made, with no obvious marks, scratches or weaknesses. Overall it looks nicely designed and well thought out with the different colours providing clear indication of what each port is. Use: The instructions cover it but it really is simple, plug in and then attach either microphone, headphones or both into their respective ports. It was picked up by the Mac instantly and since plugging it in, I have a decent sound input and the NW-700 works brilliant. The last photo shows it appearing as a USB audio device. I still sound like an idiot though unforetunately! Longevity: Its a USB plug, and its going to be left in for a while. It shouldn't fail and I'd be quite annoyed if it did. However, if it does fail in a short period then it also has the option to register for a 2 year warranty. I've done this just to make sure. If it does fail, as always I will update this review. Cheers,

This adapter is excellent if your computer sound card has failed or you can't get the drivers for it. The adapter is made of good solid plastic, nicely finished with both 'ports' well marked for Sound and microphone input. The adapter needs no installing - just plug it into any USB 2/3 port on your laptop or desktop and it is instantly recognised. The adapter is solid enough to allow plugging headphones or mic into both ports at once and sturdy enough to allow continuous connection. The sound is as good as if you have plugged into the computer directly. Not an expensive item and definitely much cheaper than having to replace a sound card. Happy to recommend.

Prima Soundkarte, wird direkt erkannt und funktioniert dann super

Compré este adaptador porque mi puerto de auriculares dejó de funcionar y necesitaba una solución rápida. La instalación es plug & play, lo conectas y en segundos está listo sin necesidad de instalar drivers. El sonido es claro y sin interferencias, tanto para auriculares como para el micrófono. Lo he probado en Windows y en PS4, y en ambos ha funcionado sin problemas. Además, la construcción es robusta y no da sensación de ser un producto frágil. Si tienes problemas con la entrada de audio de tu PC o consola, este adaptador es una solución económica y efectiva. Muy recomendable.

Ottimo prodotto ha funzionato subito, lo uso con una vecchia console da dj, senza scheda audio interna, così ho uscita cuffie senza toccare il master audio, ottima e costa poco.

Bence bu ürün kısa süreli. Eğer laptop kullanıyorsanız kesinlikle almayın. Çünkü diğer usb girişini net kapatıyor ve bence bu çok kötü. Bir süre sonra zaten kendiliğinden usb girişi yamulduğu için kullanmayı bıraktım ama baya götürdü.

Received items in good working condition.
