Product Description

The Fiio D3 Digital to Analog Audio Converter accepts digital audio signals over a coaxial or optical channel and converts it to a 2-channel (L / R) analog audio output, which can then be fed to an amplifier. In addition, it features a built-in PLL (Phase Locked Loop) with a WM8805 low-jitter digital receiver chip. Using an up / down switch, you can toggle between coaxial and optical inputs. In addition, the converter can be powered via the mini USB power supply port.An indicator on the device displays the digital signal receiving status (LOCKED). The D3 audio converter is suitable for use with several devices including televisions and CD / DVD / Blu-ray players.

Customer Reviews

I have an older Panasonic Stereo and recently purchased a Toshiba LED 3D TV. Like one of the other reviewers said the latest TV's do not come with a analog audio output. My Toshiba TV came with a digital optical audio output but my Panasonic stereo does not have a digital optical audio input. So I read the reviews on this little digital audio converter and decided to give it a try. Remember you will need a optical cable (I had one that came with one of my components) I plugged the optical cable into my TV digital audio female connector, the other end of the cable plugs into the digital audio converter on the output of the converter I plugged in the red and white analog audio cables that connect to my stereo and plugged in the power supply and flipped the little switch on the converter, a little green led came on that said locked and now any audio that plays on my tv can also be played on my stereo! Best news is there is no delay! It works perfectly! in fact if I turn on the stereo and the tv volumes they are in perfect sync! This is the solution to send your tv audio to an older stereo that does not have a optical digital audio input! So far a great product!
UPDATE:
My cable went out and while waiting for the repair man to arrive, I switched to my HD OTA signal from my antenna. Picture is perfect, but when I switch on my stereo all I hear is a noise. Just wanted to let everyone know that this will not work with your OTA antenna TV picture.

Hi. Just received this converter. Glad I found it before buying any other one. It has a superior look and finish compared to other similar products. On paper, 24bit/192KHz operation, snr 90dB at only $30, this is unbeatable specs/price ratio. I don't think there is any better product for that price over there.
I have just checked all my sound sources with it (Media Center PC audio sources, Blu-Ray movies, etc, Cable Box) from a LG LED TV optical out to stereo wireless headphones, and everything runs ok. I know it does not decode Dolby so I had previously configured my digital sources to PCM, stereo or whatever option was available.
LG, as well as other TV manufacturers, for any obscure reason, they seem to have decided not to provide RCA stereo outputs anymore. Furthermore my TV has a minijack for headphones on rear panel that mutes the TV speakers as soon as you plug or leave something plugged into it. They must think they are so 'intelligent' those TV chip designers that they decide for me what do I have to hear and how. So now, many people including myself, is forced to search for a solution if their stupid decisions do not suit our needs, and I ended up looking for audio converters.
The device looks pretty well finished, exactly as you expect from the pictures or even better, very nice. I have not noticed any kind of background noise as other reviewers post for similar products, neither with nor whitout TV sound.
The only thing where you notice the typical 'Made in China' quality perception is by reading its poorly written tiny User Manual, but on the positive side, you can get some laughs with it as well.
It is too early to tell about reliability. Other similar devices seems to die after certain periods of use, as reviewers say. We'll see. I will update this review if I encounter any problem.
