can i plug my soundbar toslink into this for my spdif coaxial slot on my tv

No. This is simply to change the optical toslink from the larger, standard square male plug to the 3.5mm male plug. Both devices must have optical connections.

Hello dkline, it does! I connected it to the SPDIF on my Vizio TV and it works well. You may want to go into the audio settings on your TV and disable the TV's speakers if you are running audio through an external source instead.

The Monoprice DVI & S/PDIF Digital Coax/Optical Toslink Audio to HDMI Converter is designed to take optical as one of the inputs and produce HDMI output so I don't think it's going to solve your application. Have a look at the J-Tech Digital Premium Quality HDMI to HDMI + Audio (SPDIF + 3.5mm Stereo) Audio Extractor Converter (JTDAT5CH). It will take HDMI as an input and generate optical out as one of the options.

Yes. I have toslink optical from my TV to my Nyrius, then RCA cables to me home stereo.

It will work with either fiber channel or coax stereo spdif signals from any source. For fiber line I've used toslink and for coax I've used an old phono/RCA cable with great results. This little box is very cheap but it works really well!

Hi, this one has both TOSLink and RCA out: http://www.amazon.com/Panlong-Converter-Extractor-Splitter-De-embedder/dp/B00JVNX8RO.

This adapter looks just like a mini headphone plug like you'd use on a cell phone. It is very rare to have any equipment using this "earphone plug" to TOSLINK adapter. So, no, it is not what you need.

Yes, you can use this and a spdif coax cable because the single coax cable carries the digitally encoded signal.

If your TV has an optical output, it is extremely likely that it is TOSLINK. TOSLINK is the name of a physical connection standard. You'll see other acronyms that refer to the protocol carried over that connection. SPDIF refers to one layer of the digital protocol that can be carried over a TOSLINK connector. You'll also see a reference to PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) which refers to one of the formats of audio that can be transferred using SPDIF. This device requires that your TV be able to output PCM over the TOSLINK optical link. Many TV's let you set PCM output but some do not. Make sure that yours does before you purchase this device. My Samsung tv permits this and this device has worked perfectly for many months.

This adaptor converts one end of a TOSlink cable (one form of S/PDIF) into a mini-TOSlink plug. Even though it looks a little like a 3.5mm jack, it's still an optical signal, so what ever you plan to plug it into has to be capable of receiving optical S/PDIF in its 3.5mm jack. For example Apple MacBooks have been capable of this for years. It doesn't convert optical/digital signal to analog sound.

The Stereo Audio Output Jack on the bottom can be used as an optical audio output jack also. You will need a Toslink to Optical Mini Plug Digital Cable or an optical cable with an Optical 3.5mm Mini Adapter. I've tried both ways and each way worked very well.

If you have a single (yellow) digital audio (SPDIF) "out" jack on the TV, that is specifically for a digital audio "in" jack on another component. Pretty much every TV also has red and white audio out jacks. Those are what you connect to the sound bar. Alternatively, many TVs have an optical (Toslink) jack for audio out. I believe that your sound bar has one too. That would be preferable. AmazonBasics Digital Optical Audio Toslink Cable - 6 Feet (1.8 Meters)

Awesome, thanks. So I guess running my PC into the TV first then just using the universal optical out from the TV to the soundbar would be optimal anyway.

No it doesn't. From the manual: "SPDIF OUT - DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (coaxial): Use a digital coaxial cable to connect your TV to a compatible audio receiver." Your only option for analog (other than purchasing a digital -&gt; analog converter) is to use the headphone jack w/adapter cabling for basic (2 ch) stereo output.

Yes, TOSLINK in and out. No on the 76 channels. This is a two channel device.

I'm sorry, I dont know the answer to that question. I only used the toslink in/out function.

Yes, you can. I have the same setup you described and it works. HDMI connected to a flat screen TV and at the same time have the SPDIF connected to my surround receiver and both can output sound simultaneously using the View HD switch. You have to check the menu on your bluray/DVD/ cable box supports sending the audio out on both outputs at the same time. Hope that info helps.
