Geee –
First time using an optical cable and the sound quality is great.
Pibe –
Great product and the price was not expensive, very good price.
Tommy –
A lot easier to use one cable instead of having to use multiple ones
David123 –
Good optical cable that reproduces video accurately
Jeff –
Needed an optical connect based on available connections and this was there, available and priced right. Has performed just fine in an application that would not justify a pricey cable.
Georgie –
Serves it purpose, a bit pricey but worth it, rather than a cheap one
Michelle –
Great product. It works well and we highly recommend.
ROBIO –

Superior sound Quality I’d buy this product again with my next tv purchase
Plaayboi –
you can hear the difference! these provide better highs and allow you to turn the volume up higher before experiencing distortion than the cables that typically come with a soundbar or other such devices, would recommend to anyone with an ear for music.

No problem with the cable. Works good for what I need it for.
Spanky –

After using a cheap Amazon basics optical cable coming out my tv to my integrated amp for a year I decided this was at the right price to give it a shot. Why not? I have audiophile grade equipment, so why would I want to cheat it out of a good connection? I didn’t expect a night and day difference and didn’t get it. At first I thought it might have made the sound a little lighter. It may have taken some warmth out. Over time I could tell I got more detail from the top end.
My moment of appreciation was when testing it with Guardians of the Galaxy and the beginning scene where he pops in the tape and hits play; I could hear the wheels turn and squeak on his Walkman. Had never heard that before on my system and I know the movie pretty well.
When playing music I can notice a little more air in the top end. Will anyone else notice the difference? No. But I do because I know my system pretty well. So overall this is one of those things that allows you to tweak your system very slightly for your own satisfaction. Worth the money? I’d say yes considering I know it’s quality and I’ll be using it for years to come. It lets me squeeze just a little more out of my favorite system. It’s not a must though.
I was a little disappointed at how thin the new model is but that can also be an advantage when doing placement. The connectors seemed a little looser than my previous cheap cable too.

Great digital optical cord for your entertainment needs. Sound quality is great. It’s only 5 feet but it works really well.

My last cable that was 30 dollars cheaper sounded better.It was made by rocket fish.save your money ….just saying
PCNWLOVER –
We had legacy components to connect to a smart TV. This cord does the trick. It was in stock.
My local best buy was able to get it to us via curbside 10 min before closing for the day- made our night awesome!!

Bruce –
High quality, worth spending a little more on this.

It’s a cable. Once plugged in you forget it even exists. Great sound but very expensive for what it is.

Simple link if looking for this type of hookup
Depends on what type of audio you are looking at …good for digital use

This optical cable works great with my sound bar and has clear crisp sounds. I will purchase this again in the near future.
PrepaidKing –
Awesome audio quality from a durable cable! Better quality than rocket fish or dynex.
xgandara –
Nice Cable. Smooth sound connected with my Sonos Playbar
BEnice –
Great chord for price. Short enough so no need to tie wrap
POOCH –
This optical cable is far better then the stock ones that come with a new component. I never believed that there was a difference in optical cables, oh but I was wrong. Much fuller and better audio, IMHO. Really good audio doesn’t come cheap.
MagicPencil –
Was a waste of money, Read on line and the TV support both said that an HDMI connection is superior. Returned product.
MervO –
AudioQuest–attainable clarity in affordable cable systems. For use with better quality equipment–it sets a standard at its price point.
Recommended highly.

Poor –
Perfect for the best quality link to our television.
Cookinglvl99 –
expensive for no reason, i would never buy this again.
Bluicagun –
Highly recommend this brand of optical cable. You can 100% hear the difference in the sound compared to other brands. This is a top notch optical cable. Is it pricey sure but as the saying goes you get what you pay for
ToddG –
Premium cable really do make a difference and this one works great
RDMinMB –
I installed a ROKU streaming device but my audio system sound didn’t work with it so I had to switch to TV sound. I installed this optical cable between the AVR and my HDTV and that solved the problem.
Jimbo –
Excellent optical cable and exactly the right length for my system!
Javier –
Good Cable. Only got it for the woven cable. Honestly over priced.
TMac –
It sounds amazing; offering a true surround experience. It is better than the HDMI cable for true surround sound. I have it running from an Insignia F30 75” 4k to the LG S80QY sound bar and LG 140w wireless rear speakers. Excellent quality, especially when watching ’Band of Brothers’, or that genre. It is more enveloping with the E-ARC setting…through the digital-optical cable.
LuisG –
Really good audio quality with this cable
A little expensive though
