The Manhattan Hi-Speed USB 2.0 - 3D 7.1 Sound Adapter is ideal for PCs and laptops, providing a microphone input and audio output via a USB port. Connect your headset, microphone, or speakers using a 3.5mm stereo plug, which can often be difficult to reach at the back of the device – this adapter eliminates that problem. The plug-and-play installation and hot-swap capability bypass faulty sound cards and audio ports, enhancing accessibility without the need for special drivers or software. An integrated power amplifier is powered directly via USB, making external power supplies or additional cables unnecessary. Support for 3D audio and virtual 7.1 surround sound, along with built-in sound effects and a 10-band equalizer, deliver rich, high-quality audio experiences with the convenience and functionality of USB.
