70% liked the connectivity, but 30% found it lacking
I connected the device to my bluray player's coaxial output and then to a 40 watt amp, resulting in better audio with less hassle and clutter, and no need to mess with a remote control.
I connected the device to the coaxial output of my bluray player, then stereo output to a small 40 watt amp to two nice bookshelf speakers and had better audio with a fraction of the hassles and clutter and no more remote control to mess with.
My receiver only plays L/R of a 5.1 track, and the bitstreams get converted to stereo incorrectly when they should be passed through.
I kept getting HDCP errors while watching a movie from my Roku after connecting the Audio Extractor.

All extractors I have used, including this one, are of low quality.
When I use the device, the screen goes to static and reloads every 15 minutes or so.
I found the directions ambiguous and couldn't get it to work even after reading them multiple times.
I contacted the manufacturer to clarify if I was doing something wrong or misunderstanding something. The manufacturer confirmed that I would not be able to control the volume from my television with this connection.

I needed a converter that could handle a Dolby signal and found this one could handle it.
The conversion is reliable with coax digital input but not with toslink input.
I bought this converter to pair with my Sennheiser RS185 wireless headphone base. Sennheiser customer support recommended it to solve the issues I was having with PCM incompatibility with the Sennheiser wireless base/decoder.
I found it hard to find support for 1080i, but this unit supports it.
