    Recommended by salespersons as high quality for the system I was putting together. Don't know the difference, due to not purchasing lower quality, but I can tell you that I am very happy with my overall system and the sound/picture.

    Great product as my receiver does not have HDMI, The choice to use optical in stead of coaxial cable was the recommendation from the gang at Best Buy

    I have this in my car as a optical input on my DSP from a BT to optical device. No noise is heard, transfers clear sound and is thin and durable.

    Seems to function perfectly connected from my integrated amplifier to the tv. Audio and visuals look sharp and clear with much detail in the tv picture quality compared to standard RCA type plugs.

    works great but not sure if it's worth the price point. I've heard many people say a basic cable is the same as a higher priced cable. I tend to agree.

    If you own a high end TV and a surround sound system to go with it, take the next step to get the high end connection.
