    returned because the system had its' own optical cord. Best Buy should do a better training job and product information because they are selling products not needed

    Top of the Line Optical Cable

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I picked this toslink cable up while at bestbuy looking for a decent optical and before that I had never heard of audioquest products but after doing some research on there website and across the web I found that any of there products whether it's speaker wire, hdmi cabels, toslink cables or composite cables are some of the best products out there and some of the most expensive. If your planning on spending the $ on any of their cables I can say that your going to get the best sound or video transmission possible. All their products are made with the best metals and fiber optic available. Simple to setup and use no matter what cable you bought. Top of the Line quality on everything AudioQuest sells.

    Purchased an expensive and unnecessary optical cable. Hopefully this will be used in another area of my home, but at this time it is sunk cost that adds no value.

    Works Well

    Had to use this with my Samsung UHD 4K TV with HDMI ARC (Audio Return Channel) input. My Bose Lifestyle V20 Home Theater system's HDMI out is not ARC capable and my Panasonic blu-ray is. So I needed a digital optical output from the TV to the Bose to get Digital Dolby/DTS output from the blu-ray. Everything works as expected with no sound quality loss or distortion.

    This is my 4th Audioquest Forest optic cable. I have 3 1.5m runs and this 3m run. No distortion, great sound quality. Great build quality. Plugs stay in and dont fall out. Ive been using a couple of these cables for 7 yrs now and they work as good as when i bought them.

    Great cable for starters

    This is a great starting cable for optical coupling with newer generation of Televisions. This works well if you have a 2 way sound equipment like a soundbar, and you don't want to invest in an a/v receiver. You don't have to switch inputs to your TV. Just plug this cable out to your soundbar OR other equipment and enjoy sound from any input (Cable / Internet TV, Blu-ray etc) without the need of switching the input to the soundbar. You may not be able to control the sound volume from the soundbar using your TV Remote as the optical out is not controlled via your tv remote. Overall, a nice experience. Deducting one star because the TVs don't regulate the optical out, though this is no fault of this cable.

    Does what I needed and expected it to do. But I ended up returning it as it was overkill form my needs. I ended up using RCA cables for sound since this was an inexpensive configuration.

    This is an integral component to the sonos sound system. Better than the one provided with the Sonos sound bar.

    So far so good with this cable. All ends are heavy duty and cable has more insulation than a stock piece.

    Overall quality and feel of the cable feels good. Not flimsy. Connectors feel solid and hooked up with no issues to both my TV and SpeakerCraft sound box.
