Audio jack replacement
The adapter is the optimal choice for mobile phones and tablets that no longer have a headphone jack and only feature a USB-C port. This includes devices from Samsung, Apple (iPhone 15 and newer / iPad), Xiaomi, Honor, and Huawei.
Sound comes first
The sound card is optimal for lossless formats like FLAC, WMA, WAV, APE, AAC, or ALAC. Listening to music in the highest possible quality is available via premium accounts on platforms such as Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music Unlimited. In addition, you can use the audio adapter to enjoy uninterrupted viewing of other popular streaming services like Netflix, Disney+, HBO Max, Amazon Prime, or Apple TV+.
Hi-Res DAC
With its DAC, the ADA-HCPD lets you enjoy music in higher quality than via your laptop's standard headphone output. It also serves as an excellent replacement for a faulty original sound card in a laptop, replacing the headphone output or microphone input.
Listen anywhere
Another advantage is the ability to connect a microphone or headset for communication services like WhatsApp, Messenger, FaceTime, Skype, Zoom, MS Teams, Google Meet, Discord, and others. You can also use it to connect your mobile device to the AUX output in your car.
TRRS connector
A stereo 4-pole TRRS connector with automatic CTIA or OMTP standard detection is used for connecting headphones. High-quality nylon braiding ensures the cable's durability.
