Awesome Sound!, Jun 25 2004

Using the Advanced AV Adapter with a fiber optic cable gives you true dolby 5.1 sound (assuming you have a surround sound system). It is absolutely amazing! I've tested Halo and PGR2 with the new setup and it adds a new whole dimension to both games. I highly recommend this adapter. Using the S-video connection will also improve your picture quality: unfortunately it does not have component connections (red, blue, green) for the very best video quality.

I got this for two reasons:
1) I noticed that my dvd player delivered cleaner video with an S-Video connection, so i wanted that for my XBox.
2) I wanted to play Halo in surround sound.
I am completely satisfied.
p.s. - After you connect this to your surround sound, make sure to go into the Audio menu from the XBox console to set up surround sound options. Otherwise, you'll only get stereo.

Nothing on it stated it was made by Microsoft, but it looks so alike. This one works fine, I mainly bought it for the digital audio output and actually get Dolby digital sound. People never knew that, you paid for a game that you were able to get through the original Xbox with 480i video and digital audio, but never got. I had replaced this one with the HD version. Using s-video was great, until I started using the component. Digital sound is completely different than analog.
