I'm using optical output from TV to OREI DA21 and then 3.5 mm jack to headphones. How can I adjust volume?

Some headphones have a volume adjustment on them otherwise if you have the device connected properly you should be able to turn the volume up on the tv you are connected to. You also might have to turn off the internal tv speaker setting on your tv when using this with newer tvs

There is no volume adjustment on this, but you might want to ensure that the 3.5mm cable is plugged in completely on both ends since if it is not there is very little volume.

I had not used that option but have now tested. Headphones work fine and the output to the RCA jacks is not interrupted when the 3.5 mm jack is in use. Something to keep in mind -- there is no volume control on the decoder. The SPDIF output from the TV is probably not controlled either. Unless your headphone has an integrated volume control the result may be uncomfortable. I checked off air vs. DVD on my TV. Off air came out with a moderate volume on my headphones where as DVD was pretty loud during some passages. Depending on your personal preferences it is possible that some audio could actually be too low in volume.

Sure just use the Bluetooth option or Auxiliary in and then Adjust volume on Input device

Dear James, Thanks for your inquiry. If you are going to use the headphone jack, you're going to probably come close to maxing the volume in the television itself so more signal gets into the soundbar. Does your TV have an optical audio output? That would be a better option.Regards,Eric CohenWorld Wide Stereo

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.

you can adjust the volume on your headset, the headset does not adjust the volume on other devises.

I have been pleased to be able to adjust the volume on the headphone extension as I listen to my TV programs. I found it helpful to also have a stereo and mono setting as well (sometimes the mono setting is preferable for hearing speech vs. some very loud sound effects).

Using standard stereo cables and plugs it is not possible. However you could modify your stereo input cable and headphone cable to feed the left only to channel 1, e.g., and right only into channel 2. Then you could independently adjust the volume of the right and left channels. It would require cable and connector modifications and require using two amplifier channels for one stereo signal.

There is a volume control, if your TV has a mini headphone jack you should be able to connect using it.

You will need a mono coax cable to run from your digital output on the tv to the converter input, and a stereo coax cable to run from the converter analog outputs to your sound bar stereo inputs. The converter does not have any volume control. I use it for headphones and the level always borders on the almost too loud. It is like being in a theater where the sound is always amped up.

Go to sound,after you have plugged in,and you see how to adjust it..Hope this will help you.

I have these as a supplement to my surround sound but the volume is only self adjusting.

The standard for stereo jacks is 3.5mm and the unit has one. However it is intended as an output for a stereo system/powered speakers, etc. So if you are intending to use it with headphones, adjusting the volume is not straightforward.

Yes, just connect cables to the two RCA input jacks located on the back of the unit. Use a cable with a Y from a stereo jack to the audio output of your TV, as for a headphone output.On the unit, press the Source button repeatedly to enter Aux/Line Mode, indicated by a white light.Or use the remote to choose the Aux/Line input.

There is a 3.5mm port but as others mentioned controlling the volume would likely be an issue. On my particular set the television volume does not effect the volume of the external speakers connected via this device.
