Clear Audio from Heavy Duty Digital Optical Cable
Premium Digital Audio Cable Delivers the clearest audio & is built to last a lifetime! I use premium cables to bring out DTS & Dolby Atmos while viewing the latest LG OLED 4K UHD TV. This is my first opportunity to purchase a Rocketfish cable from Best Buy instead of the much more expensive and highly advertised premium cable brand. The 2 photos show this Rocketfish Digital Optical Cable. The sound quality through the Rocketfish HDMI is stunning using DTS & Dolby Atmos source material. I could not hear any difference between the Rocketfish and the most highly advertised brands that cost several times more. Examinations of the cable's physical attributes show very expensive materials, with no shortcuts. The cable is very thick (approximately 3/8" diameter) showing extra durability in the cable. The plugs are super heavy duty, an incredibly strong, lightweight material with the highest physical strength - the thickness & the plugs are exactly the same as the most expensive "premium brand" cables. Beware of THIN optical cables. They do not flex many times without breaking the optical cable inside. Thin cables cost less, and are less expensive to manufacture. On the "high end" extreme, well engineered plugs add physical strength (they won't break if hit). This cable made a believer out of me. Rocketfish offers the absolute BEST in quality digital optical audio signal transmission with the highest quality construction at the best value. Rocketfish earns my HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION!

Happy everything works
Happy that it was just the cord that needed to be replaced. Everything sounds great happy with my purchase.

I purchased a floor model soundbar for a nice price, it did not come with a remote or a digital audio cord. 4 ft. cords (the smallest available) were like $23, 8 ft. was like $26 so might as well grab the extra footage. Works like it should, bought the Rocketfish over the cheaper GE or whomever. Small caps on ends of cord are tough to spot when first unpackagaing.

I recently added a soundbar/sub combo (a Sony HTST-7) to my living room tv. It came with a tiny gauge toslink optical cable, but I wanted to replace it with something more robust. The Rocketfish cable was easily 8 times the girth of the original Sony cable. Since the connections on the soundbar and tv are on opposite ends, the added length was beneficial also. Great cable, especially at the $4 sale price.
