External USB 7.1 Sound Adapter

This compact USB sound card adds virtual 7.1 channel audio to any system with a USB Type-A port. It draws power directly from the bus so no external supply is needed. The aluminium-clad body measures 7.9 by 1.34 by 0.51 inches and weighs 51 grams. Driver-free installation works on Windows, Linux and Mac OS.

For headsets with broken onboard audio

Gamers and streamers whose internal sound card has failed or whose device lacks a 3.5 mm combo jack can plug in a stereo headset and mono microphone instantly. It also suits PlayStation 4 owners who want a simple volume dial. Users needing true multi-channel hardware decoding or optical S/PDIF output should look elsewhere.

Stereo output with virtual surround

The adapter presents a stereo headphone jack and a mono microphone jack, simulating 7.1 surround through Windows software on XP, Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, 10 and Server 2003. It handles gaming, movies and music comfortably. High-resolution multi-channel formats, dedicated line-level outputs or ASIO-level latency are beyond its design.
