TeckNet Aluminum USB External Stereo Sound Adapter for Windows and Mac Plug a

Great product

Great product, my modern laptop, does not have a line in jack.
This solves the problem, by using the microphone port of the Tecknet
Device.
Works well, as my laptop has combined headphone microphone trrs jack that does not recognise a microphone.

Great for most audio programs.
I would highly recommend it .Read full review

Highly recommended for "Hobby" recording projects.

I bought an inexpensive Yamaha keyboard recently to use when recording tracks with "Audacity" The only output the keyboard has is a headphone socket, so after a bit of searching on line I came across this product from Tecknet. My laptop (Windows 10) recognised it as soon as I plugged it in and results recording the keyboard were superb. There is also a headphone out socket on the devise so monitoring was not a problem either.
I'm sure there are more high tech solutions, but for me this devise was exactly what I was looking for. Very simple to use and great results. Highly recommended for "Hobby" recording projects.Read full review

Good sound but could be built a little more solidly

The headphone jack on my Dell Latitude was broken, and having put up with holding the jack in place with Plasticine and my fingers the idea of a USB solution eventually surfaced in my mind. The adaptor was purchased, plugged in, and after some playing around works perfectly, audio wise. There are a couple of small problems. a) the adaptor must be plugged in before the DVD program is switched on, otherwise you will hear nothing. b) in common with most USB devices the physical connection between the male portion of the unit and the body of the unit is only that which is provided by the solder connections of the terminals. At some time I shall try to feed some superglue into the joint between the metal casing of the male portion of the plug, and the white plastic end cap, to take the strain off the soldered joints.
Otherwise the sound is all that I require for listening to DVD films and audio book downloads. Well doneRead full review

Long-term problem fixed!

Some years ago, my daughter managed to break off a 3.5mm jack plug in the headphone socket of her laptop and has not been able to use headphones or external speakers since then. This adapter has fixed the problem completely and cheaply. The quality of sound using it is just as good as the original. I am very pleased with this brilliant solution to the problem and my daughter is delighted.Read full review

Alternative to replacing headphone jack

My headphone jack is damaged and no longer works so this is a great fix without having to take to a repairers. Just plug the gismo into a usb and put your headphones in it. No driver software needed, works great!Read full review

Good value solid item

Solidly build small unit. The only downside is that on a lot of laptops it'll block more than one USB slot. That's more about poor laptop design than anything about this unit.
