Can be tough to configure. But once configured it's amazing
Reviewed in Canada on August 14, 2022

So I like almost everything about this product. Since I upgraded from an old Dell ultra HD monitor that had there's that had a 5.1 surround sound jack for computer speakers I had to get this as a solution to maintain my 5.1 surround sound capabilities. This little box comes with alot of options. More than I need...currently.

Anyways, big one to note. Restart right after driver instal. Then configure the speakers in the driver software that will appear in the task tray. And if you're going with a surround sound computer speaker package, disable digital audio out and inputs on that box so you can have volume control via windows. Then restart again. Should work smoothly after that. Full surround, volume control through windows and if you wanted to upgrade later to a full reciever and surround sound system then you can re-enable the digital input and output. But note that using the SPDIF you will have to rely on the reciever for full volume control

Great sound card
Reviewed in Canada on January 6, 2023

Really true plug & play with Windows 10, BUT headphones were not working. I contacted the support and in less then a hour, I received a reply containing a driver for the chip set C-Media CM6206 to install and after a reboot of the PC, ALL is working fine. Quality of the audio is really great for the price, won't find better. I'll give A+ for the support I had from Vantec, great company!

I'll have to remove one star because the audio of the speakers doesn't cut when we insert a headphones jack, so I need to get up and turn off the speakers manually I usually keep permanently at On. It's not an issue with the product itself but a limitation of the chip set they use in this product. Wish a firmware update somehow could fix it eventually.

Useful for headphone sound
Reviewed in Canada on February 23, 2020

For apartment TV (58 inch Hisense), the headphone output is 2.0.

Using and old laptop, with the Vantec NBA-0200U Usb device plugged into a usb 2.0 port, ... it became a new external audio device to use with regular headphones with a 3.5 mm male plug.
Using the SPDIF TV output to the NBA-200U(cable not included), FosPower (0.9M/3FT) 24K Gold Plated Toslink Digital Optical Audio Cable (S/PDIF) - [Zero RFI & EMI Interference] Metal Connectors & Ultra Durable Nylon Braided Jacket.

Once the external audio device is properly configured, the NBA-200U Adaptor front panel headphone jack, provides an incredible 7.1 "clean" sound field ... that can only be believed once heard !

The result is that now, ... in an apartment setting, the audio output from any TV source fed into NBA-200U Adaptor
becomes a "surround experience" that will rival a big buck audio system, ... in stealth mode.

The unit is an old school 2012 type of unit, and the software looks dated, BUT IT SURE WORKS FINE !
Such an inexpensive solution to achieve a sound field of astonishing proportions.

What a GREAT device and RESULT !

Really basic external audio "card"

Pros
- 8 channel

Cons
- cheap chinese chipset CM6206 *yuck*
- no official drivers for MacOS - 3rd party drivers are lousy
- Windows - have to install their drivers
- linux - has its own drivers

Has strange problems with some audio outputs being muted after booting the OS. From my research, it appears to be OS/driver dependent. Sound cracks/pops if there is heavy traffic via USB hub.

Not without a hitch but payoff was good
Reviewed in Canada on October 26, 2018
Verified Purchase
I had a few small problems the disk wouldn't install for some odd reason, it put up a window saying something about it not working. So I went to their easy to navigate site and downloaded the drivers. Then I ran across the second problem. On the easy access card it says to install the drivers before hooking it up. It didn't work but once again I checked out their easy to access site and the FAQ says to hook up first then install the drivers. So I uninstalled the drivers hooked it up and reinstalled the drivers and it worked great. I dropped them an email about another small problem I had with getting my system to play my surround and they responded promptly with a diagram.
So the few minor hickups to start were not a problem as the device works great and I'd recommend it. It will do 7.1 or 5.1. Others I seen would only do 5.1 or cost much more. I only have 5.1 but if ever I expand down the road I can keep the same Adapter.

Bought this adapter to convert some digital audio contents using the optical input and usb as output, but it never worked, computer recognise it, but no sound on the usb side.... Simply useless.... Even the headphone output for monitoring show no sound. Money wasted.

Works very well to connect external stereo audio input from a multi-channel mixer, into a computer through a USB port, as well as obtain an audio output from the computer, into an audio system or headphones. Regularly used for Zoom connections in both a church and choir environment, bypassing the poor (or malfunctioning) microphone and speaker in my laptop. No problems so far.

Pas le bon produit pour obtenir un son surround de la Shield TV
Reviewed in France on July 9, 2023

En connectant le Vantec sur un port USB d'une Shield TV Pro (le nouveau modèle), je pensais pouvoir avoir un son Dolby Digital 5.1 sur la sortie optique. Et bien non ! Stéréo au mieux.
Par contre ça fonctionne en le connectant sur le port USB d'un PC sous W10 mais c'est pour moi sans intérêt.
Je retournerai donc le produit.

Lo compre en un inicio para conectar la salida audio óptico de mi Tv a la entrada de audio óptico de la tarjeta Vantec pero no dio señal, probé con otros dispositivos como Xbox one, play 4 y otra computadora con salida optical y estos si daban señal, por lo que deduje que la salida optical de mi tv era la que no servía y la entrada optical de la tarjeta Vantec si.
Por lo tanto, estaba a nada de regresarla debido en que no cumplía lo que requería pero me convenció la excelente calidad de sonido que tiene a pesar de ser externa y de bajo costo, la recomiendo.

Works with Shield - but different with older and with newer Shield-Generations
Reviewed in Germany on July 28, 2021

Update 31.07.2021:

Die Shield-Geräte haben keinen optischen Audio-Ausgang.
Falls ein solcher Ausgang direkt am Shield benötigt wird ist dies für Shield-Besitzer wohl der wesentliche Grund diese Vantec-USB-Soundkarte zu kaufen.

Leider konnte ich (immerhin Informatiker i.R. ;-) dem NBA-200U bei dem älteren Shield-Gerät keinen Surround-Sound über den optischen Ausgang entlocken. Nur wenn das Quellmedium in Stereo bzw. PCM 2.0 vorliegt (also z.B. alles bei Youtube) gibt der optische Ausgang die Signale an z.B. den Denon-Receiver weiter. Angeschlossen am neusten Shield (2020) war Surround über den optischen Ausgang des NBA-200U möglich, warum auch immer. Die beiden Shields bzw. die Kodi-App waren auf RAW-Passtrough eingestellt und alle Surround-Sound-Protokolle waren erlaubt (DTS, E-AC3, DD Atmos .. erlaubt.)

Wenn auf dem älteren Shield Passtrough innerhalb Kodi (19.1) abgestellt wurde ergab dies eine erfolgreiche Tonwiedergabe (2 Kanalige ?) über den optischen Ausgang. Nehme an, Kodi hat den Stream dann umgewandelt in einen PCM-Stream.

Manchmal zeigte das NBA-200U durch Blinken einen Signaleingang auch bei einer Mehrkanal-Quelle an. Aber über dessen optischen Ausgang kam kein für den AV-Receiver erkennbares Signal (getestet am älteren Shield) heraus.

Die analogen Ausgänge des NBA-200U habe ich nicht getestet, auch weil dort von einer qualitativ schlechten D/A-Wandlung auszugehen ist und analoge Signale an dieser Stelle höchsten z.B. für einfache Zwecke zu gebrauchen sind. Jedenfalls erzeugte ein qualitativ höherwertiges 48 KHz Stereo-Signal ausgegeben über den USB-Audioausgang des älteren Shield und via den LWL-Ausgang des NBA-200U- an den AV-Receiver weitergeleitet sofort Tonstörungen. Das normale (geringer aufgelöste) Stereo-Signal funktionierte hingegen (am alten Shield getestet).

Da ich das Teil dennoch für einen Youtube-Musik-Stream gut gebrauchen kann (zum einfachen Musikhören via LWL bzw. AV-Receiver und ohne Beteiligung eines über HDMI angeschlossenen TVs) werde ich es nicht zurückschicken und vergebe ich 3,5 Sterne.

Gerne hätte ich 5 Sterne vergeben aber die beschriebene Surround- und 48 KHz-Problematik kann ich nicht eindeutig zu Lasten der Shields verbuchen. Für eine bessere Problem-Eingrenzung wären ggf. weitere Tests und ggf. Messgeräte nötig.
