I'm happy to be able to have a digital link for my audio system components. Works just as advertised.
Why oh why is that so poorly advertised. Thus, if you have this little adapter and a standard optical (toslink) cable, you can jack into your home stereo and get transcendent sound. This simple plug makes it possible for you to get perfect, interference free audio from your Macbook Pro. That's right: the Macbook Pro has a headphone jack that DOUBLES as an optical out.
The audio won't run over the video output connector of the macmini so I need to use the audio out. Some of the other adapters I saw were too bulky in comparison.
I don't know if it's a testament to Apple, SanDisk or both, but I am definitely happy. I plugged the SanDisk adapter into the audio jack of my macmini, plugged an optical cable into the adapter and am enjoying fantastic audio out of my system.
I have a macmini that I use as a media center system. This SanDisk adapter works perfectly and is very nice because it is a low profile adapter.
I will order another one when I setup another macmini as my bedroom media center controller. I run the video output from the macmini via DVI-D and have a converter cable to HDMI.
I was very pleasantly surprised to learn the macmini supports digital audio out with the help of an adapter.
Sounds crystal clear. Lets me take 24 bit 96khz stereo sound from my mac mini to my DAC. This mini plug uses glass, as opposed to plastic. I have been using it for several months in conjunction with my HiFi music system.
