Andrea Electronics C1-1021450-1 Model USB-SA-1 High Fidelity External Digital Sound Card with Noise Reduction Technology

I used this with my cell phone to record music. This shows me how bad the ADC on cell phones are. The sound quality was improved ten fold.

I needed this because I got a new computer and most new computers dont have separate input/output aka separate mic/audio jacks anymore and only have the audio now. I didnt realize this until I bought my new computer. For my work I need to record from my computer using an external microphone. The audio was terrible/unusable before buying this little gem, and now it is GREAT! Very happy!

Excellent

Delivered on time and looks and works as described. Great product!

Love it

I just missed the return deadline on this one, but be warned, on my unit, the mic input jack basically wore out after about 10 insertions, which can only mean inferior low quality components in that area. Unfortunately very few usb sound devices support stereo mic inputs, which I needed, so theres not a lot of options. To avoid this issue, just expect the jacks to die, so dont plug and unplug things repeatedly, leave the cables inserted and unplug the other end of it instead if you can. if you dont need stereo mic inputs there is almost no reason to get this device since many other usb sound devices are out there, of much better quality, with manufacturers who will stand behind their product. Ive never seen the connections on a 1/8th inch jack fail this quickly, Im hoping if I tape a cable in place it will last for a while, fingers crossed.

Works excellent with VXI Tria USB headset. A must have for better microphone accuracy.

The original didnt have the little cord and nothing else would fit beside it in the second USB port, so I like this one much better! For the price, its a great USB sound card.

Just purchased it about a month ago. My court reporters loved it when I offered it to them to use.

I had the device plugged into my mac book for less than 60 seconds and an error came up saying that a USB device was drawing too much power and my laptop had shut it off. I unplugged the device and it was too hot to even touch. After letting it cool I tried it again and it was dead, the USB port still works fine but the device is done. It was scary to me how hot it got and how quickly it got there. Not sure why this happened but it is very unsettling. I bought this one for the reviews but I guess I got the one.
