What
This adapter for optical cables transfers the signal using light; thus completely eliminating any chance for RFI, EMI or ground loop interference. You can connect your existing desktop or home theater computer or laptop to A/V receiver for clear and more detailed sound. However, it might be very difficult finding these Toslink To Optical Mini Adapter from your local store so ordering online is often the only option. Here, I have covered the commonly used cables and adapters that you can easily find from amazon.com.
Why
Surprisingly many people connect their computer to an A/V receiver with an analog RCA-audio cable without realizing they could get a lot better digital sound from their existing devices. Your MP3′s will sound clearer and more detailed with an optical cable compared to the analog RCA-audio cable. In addition, you can get 5.1 dolby digital sound with the mini adapter from DVD and other video files on your computer.
This 3.5 mm Toslink to Optical Mini Adapter will fit right into the headphone jack on your computer, no additional hardware is needed. Even the salespeople of the local electronics stores often have no clue if you say that you need an cable to go from a mini-optical SP/DIF (computer’s sound card) to a standard Toslink (home theater amplifier), not even the home theater specialist always understand what is this cable. The following products listed below fits perfectly to your need.
You can either go with a Toslink to Optical cable with a mini plug or get a separate Toslink to Optical Mini Adapter for your existing optical cable.
To my mind this adapter is one of the most important cables you need after DVI-to-HDMI cable when connecting your HTPC to the devices in the living room. All you need is an existing home theater amplifier with a digital optical in and the Toslink To Optical Mini Adapter from Amazon.com. Strongly recommended.
