What this adapter does

The Corn Electronics ALC4050 converts a USB-C port into a 3.5 mm analogue audio output using an ALC4050 DAC chip that supports 32bits/384KHz sampling. It is intended for listeners who want higher fidelity than a standard dongle provides and who use wired headphones with a USB-C device. The Kevlar-braided cable and aluminium shell add durability for daily carry.

What to verify before ordering

Confirm your host device routes analogue audio through its USB-C port, because some phones and tablets output only digital data and will not drive this adapter. The product supports OMTP and CTIA headset standards with automatic switching, so inline microphone and remote functions should work with most 3.5 mm headsets. No driver installation is required on Windows 7/8/10, macOS, iOS 10 or Android 4.0 and above.

What the bundled items change

The package includes two identical adapters, giving a spare for a second device or a backup if one is lost. Each unit weighs 15 g and measures 300 mm, so the pair adds negligible bulk to a bag. The Kevlar braided wire is rated for 10,000 swing cycles and the USB-C connector for 10,000 insertion cycles, reducing the chance of cable failure during regular use.

Questions about this item

Does the package include headphones or only the adapter cable?

The package contains only the USB-C to 3.5 mm adapter cable. No headphones or earphones are included, so you will need to supply your own 3.5 mm headset.

Should I choose the 32-bit 384 kHz DAC version or a lower-spec model?

This model is offered only with the ALC4050 chip at 32-bit 384 kHz. There is no alternative sampling-rate version to select from.

What does the 32-bit 384 kHz rating mean for everyday listening on a phone?

The ALC4050 chip supports up to 32-bit 384 kHz decoding with a signal-to-noise ratio above 95 dB and distortion below 85 dB, delivering high-fidelity audio beyond CD quality when paired with compatible source files and headphones.
