    Product works great

    We received and a hand-me-down sound bar from a friend and it was missing this cord. Went to Best Buy and was directed to this product. Plugged in and no issues!

    Great Buy Just In Time!

    Nice cable, it suits it's purposes very well! My grandfather has an older sound system (that still works great) that only takes av or optical cables. Since we got him a new tv for christmas that doesn't have av cables he was without good audio for a while. Now he's happy as a clam! My only qualm is it was rather difficult to find, I looked through the same aisle for a good 15 minutes and then decided I wouldn't be able to find it on my own and asked for helm. It took him a good 2 minutes to locate it as this section wasn't as well kept as other parts of the store.

    Overpriced but functional

    I picked this cable up because it was the only optical audio cable available at my local store when I needed one immediately. While it works perfectly fine and provides a solid connection for my home theater system, it is significantly more expensive than other equivalent options on the market. If you are in a pinch and need a Toslink cable today, this will get the job done without any issues, but you are definitely paying a premium for the convenience of in-store availability. It functions exactly as intended, but don't expect it to perform any better than much cheaper alternatives.

    Very good optical cable

    Bought this about two years ago for a sleek, one cable connection to a new Sony Bravia A95L that is paired with Apple TV4K, Sonos Arc (Atmos), sub-woofer, and Sonos One (x2). Wanted great movie and other video experiences and got them! Works great, never had a problem.

    Go Flirt with Best Buy.

    They always have the best equipment I need and usually have great discounts. I’ve bought JBL headphone, replaced my car speakers, bought a laptop for my school and most recently bought an Apple Watch SE. Best technology at great prices. I think thats why they are called ‘Best Buy’ and I flirt with that!
