Have a Toshiba 24SLV411U with dolby digital- Still a good fit for adding headphones?

Don't know if it's a good fit or not. Having headphones helps a lot if you want to remain quiet. However, though the product sold here does work, in less than a year, the volume control is going out. And I hardly touch it all. Buyer beware. Quite expensive to have break.

I used the optical - analog converter for my samsung smarthub tv to my Bose headphones and it works excellent

The speakers are inevitably tiny. You could either get a surround sound that is optic fibre capable, or adjust your sound to "good enough". Let me give you a run down of how audio works on the tv. Treble is your high notes, bass is your low notes, and mids is more highs for this certain tv. There is an option for bass boost, you will want that. One of the things I'm glad i did(i live alone) is buy a wireless headset. Razer, or turtle beach makes a very...very nice set. They are 100$+ because its a 7.1 surround wrapped around your head. So if you watch tv alone, its worth getting. Other than that, with the adjustments i explained to you, have at it. If you need anymore assistance let me know! :)

Yes, the headphone adapter you receive allow compatibility across the board.

I have always been advised, from the audio video specialists, that is was fine to use various models of speakers as long as you stay with the same manufacturer. The frequencies and sound should sound just great.

I have a high end home theatre system - my receiver is 7.1 but speakers I only have a 5.1 setup. I think the toshiba is hd master audio and dolby hd quality for 5.1 just not 7.1 right. So i should just grab the a30? Thanks in advance.

Andrew:>Got to upgrade the receiver for the HD, at which point I'll just use the HDMI. As for what you guys are discussing, maybe the manual is outdated, since a firmware update enabled this unit to output the DTS-HD Master Audio Decoding via the HDMI, without having to go the analog route.Yeah. I would go ahead and upgrade; there are so many good deals on quality receivers right now. I have an Onkyo TX-SR706 with everything I need. I've had it for a week now and it blows me away.

These headphones are designed to work with a device that has a digital output specifically TosLink or Coax. I have a SPDIF (TosLink) output on my PC so I wanted to take advantage of that function rather than having to use the headphone jack on the front of the machine. Since it is converting the digital input to analog and then sending that through the headphones, I am not sure much more fidelity I will get. Would have been nice if the digital input would have been accepted directly into the headphone unit.

They're fine. I had to Google to find out that the factory installed driver software has to be uninstalled and replaced to make the sound decent. I didn't know driver software could screw things up so bad. Not sure why Toshiba ships it this way

I'd see if I could get this kind of adapter locally. For example, our local BestBuy had one for a dollar, I think.The headphones? Haven't used them much; initial thoughts: pretty good sound, not the most comfortable.

I'm no audiophile, so I can't vouch for the quality of the audio, but it sounds quite good to me. And yes, if you have headphones hooked in, you can listen to the audio as it is being captured. Just to let you know, I own the DS-40, but I think the only difference between that model and this one is the memory.

I would recommend this card no matter what. It is 25$ and it was a huge improvement over my onboard sound (although I bought my computer in 2007). I have no idea about the headphone situation though.

Sure, as long as your TV has the output for Toslink or Coaxial and your headphones use the 3.5mm audio jack or RCA. The only problem I can see you having is that on my TV you cannot control the volume via the TV so your headphone should have some sort of volume control.

Optical digital input allows use with Dolby Digital and PCM audio Found this but looking for something less expensive http://www.amazon.com/Sony-MDR-DS3000-Infrared-Wireless-Headphones/dp/B00023C6SE/ref=sr_1_20/189-4939819-8547331?ie=UTF8&s=aht&qid=1256224959&sr=1-20

I have the Onkyo TX-SR702 that I like very much. I just wanted more watts and the new Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio but not for full price. If the 807 comes out I might take a look but Sony ES or Denon would be just fine.

I don't believe so, at least not directly.The "audio out" on this set is a proprietary optical audio jack called TOS-LINK (abbreviated version of "Toshiba-Link"). A standard headphone jack (3.5mm) will not fit into, nor produce sound from a TOS-LINK jack.Your only hope, from what I can tell, would be to find an adapter cable with a male end to connect into the television's TOS-LINK outlet and a female end to connect your 3.5mm headphones into. A few quick Google searches didn't produce much of anything worthwhile, so the technology may not exist, but if you find out otherwise, be sure to share!

Yes, I have the 225, and it works, but you'll have to get a headphone adapter if your audio port is not on the same side of your laptop as the video port

I hooked it up to my wife's 4 year old Toshiba laptop without any problem. Required an open USB port and you have to plug in a headphone type jack.
