Has anyone used this for a led tv and xbox 360? I've read that Modified Sine Wave confuses some electronics that rely on the consistency of True Sine

If you use a modified sine inverter with an led tv you will not like your picture. You should use a pure sine. Also your tv will last longer on a pure sine.Joe

We are not aware of the Power Bright PW1100-12, 1100 Watt Power Inverter being used with an LED TV and XBOX 360 combination.The Power Bright PW1100-12 is a Modified Sine Wave Inverter. Some electronic applications may require a Pure Sine Wave Power Inverter. Please check with the manufacturers of the TV and XBOX to see which would be recommended. Most often, these devices work just fine using Modified Sine Wave Inverters.

We haven't run it with such an inverter, but we did look at the circuitry inside when evaluating it, and it shouldn't need a pure sine-wave. In fact, it only pulls power at the peaks of the sine wave (it has around a 0.7 power factor), and will actually run with an appropriate high-voltage DC input instead of AC. So it shouldn't care if your inverter is "modified-sine-wave". Your inverter, however, may care that the supply only pulls power during part of the cycle, and you may therefore need an inverter with a higher peak output power/current than you were expecting.

While it is true that a modified sine wave inverter may damage certain types of electronic devices, that's really more of the exception than the rule. There are two different things that you need to be concerned about: appliances that use AC motors and certain classes of delicate medical equipment. If your electronics don't fall into either of those categories, then you're good to go with a modified sine wave inverter - and you saved a bunch of money to boot. reference to above information. http://cartech.about.com/od/Power/f/Will-A-Modified-Sine-Wave-Inverter-Damage-My-Electronics.htm While it is true that a modified sine wave inverter may damage certain types of electronic devices, that's really more of the exception than the rule.

Modified sine wave. This inverter will not perform as advertised. Very weak.

I haven't tried that set up. The signal going in through a good interface shouldn't degrade or distort. If you try this, lets us here how that worked for you.

It should, as long as you dont go over 200 watts in power draw using the tv and xbox....My xbox 360 slim draws 126 watts alone.so you should be fine and dandy with a somewhat small flatscreen that draws less than 70 watts just so you dont overload the inverter. Hope this helps!

Pure sine wave will always be the default recommendation, especially for electronics. However there is generally a big cost hit with pure sine wave compared to simulated sine wave. For a unit like a power supply which is quite robust in design, when talking about the quality of power input, a simulated sine wave UPS would be acceptable to use. It is certainly much better than exposing the PSU & your PC to power brownouts.

Interesting question...The first thing that needs to be considered is the amplitude of the "Fixed" volume of your TV set. Next, you will have to contact the manufacturer of this device to acquire the specs on the amplitude input limits. Otherwise, if both specs align then it should work.

Yes! That's how I run my my Xbox One, and there are several DSPs specific to gaming through a multichannel LPCM stream.

Muriel,I bought this converter to hook up an Atari 2600 to my LED TV. Thats almost a thirty year technology gap, and it works flawlessly! I highly recommend this converter!Tom

I had a similar problem on my Xbox 360 through HDMI. The trick that worked for me was to set the AUDIO OUT under the HDMI settings in the receiver menu to AMP. It was set to AMP/TV and for some reason that doesn't allow for DTS or Dolby Digital. Good luck!

I severely doubt it, because the sine waves would NOT be in synch and that would play havoc with any electronic devices attached, changing the RMS voltage outputs. It would create very dirty power. If you want to do this, you should contact the manufacturer to see if there is some modification they can recommend. Otherwise, just split the outputs to different circuits, but be very careful to NOT share a common neutral, and provide a separate ground as well.

Don't quote me on this, but I don't think that would be an issue if you used the software included. Seeing as it's a USB connection and converts the analog signal through the unit it should be OK. I'm not a computer expert though, so I could be wrong. Just my thoughts.

Yes, it works on different circuits, but please be aware, and this may of been an isolated issue with my units, but they fried everything I connected them to (a desktop PC, a network switch and a security camera DVR). I had my power checked and all is well with my power in my house.

As others have said the Sine Wave power is WELL worth it for the life of all of your equipment. Most newer, higher end, devices have active power supplies these days. Do you need it, no not really, but why take the chance when you buying something like this to protect equipment that you've spent a bunch of money on?

I use this cable on my ps3 and 3d led projector with out any problems, and it's high quality for the price. Hope this has helped you.

I can tell you that the output of the Geffen digital to analog converter, currently in my system, has ZERO propagation delay - IT IS IN SYNC WITH THE VIDEO... The ONLY item I would caution you on is - every "once-in-a-while" DIRECT TV's digital box will output a "glitch" on its DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT - this manifests itslf as a POP (quite loud) in my audio stream... This COULD cause some discomfort to you with your hearing aides... FYI...
