AXAGON ADA-71 SOUNDbox
Enjoy full surround sound on any computer with the AXAGON SOUNDbox external USB sound card.
The 8-channel USB audio adapter ADA-71 allows you to connect stereo systems with 7.1, 5.1, or 4.0 channel surround sound or 2.1 or 2.0 stereo speakers.
The AXAGON ADA-71 SOUNDbox sports a wide range of features, meaning you will never face a situation when you are missing some crucial audio input or output.
7.1-CHANNEL AUDIO • EXCEPTIONALLY GREAT HARWARE OPTIONS
The standard headphone 3.5mm output is complemented by a premium feature in the form of a second headphone output with a 6.3mm connector. This saves you from needing an adapter.
6.3mm & 3.5mm HEADPHONE OUTPUTS
Four analogue outputs for connecting up to eight speakers complement both types of digital S/PDIF outputs – the optical Toslink and coaxial RCA connectors. With this sound card, linking to the amplifier will be absolutely hassle-free.
Another nice feature is the card’s AC3 pass-through support.
OPTICAL TOSLINK & COAXIAL RCA OUTPUTS
Two 3.5mm inputs allow you to connect a stereo microphone.
Another analogue line in input enables analogue signal recording.
Finally, there are both types of digital S/PDIF inputs - a Toslink optical and a coaxial RCA connector for digital signal recording.
