    I have never really bought into buying really expensive optical cables. But I bought an Xbox one s and unfortunately my marantz receiver supports 4K but not hdr sadly. So I needed to run an optical cable. I bought this one and it sounds so much better running it this way versus via arc connections.

    I have now bought two of these cables to solve issues with the audio return channel (ARC) HDMI connection between two different recently bought Samsung smart TVs and their multi-channel A/V receivers (issue probably with the receivers). Audio quality is very good.

    If you are meticulous about cable selection, then you can't really go wrong with this one. This company makes some great stuff - high quality. But if you are looking for an optical that will simply do the job, this might not be for you. You can find cheaper options.

    I love the ease with which these work. One funny thing -- At first I couldn't figure out how to plug them in -- they didn't seem to snap into the connection. So I went online and searched for an answer -- Remember to remove the clear rubber guards at the ends of the cables. Once I figured that part out, it was all good.

    I'm not much of a speaker cable or optical cable geek so haven't much basis for comparison. However, these seem to be the real deal and perform as advertised.--they do the job, function well and are of excellent quality. No complaints from me with them....

    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!!

    I own a number of Audioquest cables and have always appreciated the quality. I am convinced that more economical alternatives will provide you with the same desired effect, and would not try to persuade anyone that the sound quality of this cable is better than another; however, this cable works well for what I need, which is in-wall and lengthy.

    I was having troubles attaching new tv to soundbar and it doesn't get any easier than this! The expense with better quality materials is apparent with optimized sound output. If you're going to spend any money on a soundbar you're missing out on optimal sound using cheaper cables.

    They say you have to pay for what you want and for me to connect my audio system and hide the wires I needed a really long cord. I love how my setup looks in the home. Even with long wire there is no audio lag.
