    Good quality for the price. I got a new surround sound system and needed this type of cable. Compatible with most A/V components with an optical digital audio jack, this Dynex™ Direct DX-SF136 cable easily connects your DVD player, gaming console or other device to a compatible TV or A/V receiver, ensuring efficient signal transmission.

    I needed a longer optical audio cable. This cable was perfect. I had my wife's receiver setup and in a location that satisfied her in a few minutes. What really convinced me was the price on the item. I checked a number of electronic stores in the area and this was the best price for the length. Very satisfied.....

    I found this optical cable while shopping online. It was significantly less than similar products (8' length) I had found at other sites. I received it very quickly and installed. The sound performance is excellent. I highly recommend this product.

    This 12ft Dynex Digital Optical Audio Cable, worked perfectly with our new 65" Sony Bravia TV. We needed it to connect our Sony Surround system to the TV. The cable was the perfect length to run through the wall for a professional appearance. Well worth the money and at a lesser cost than some other brands.

    Just a very basic optical cable. Not heavy duty but functional. It was strange it didn’t come with any packaging other than an unprinted bag.

    So, split up with Gf,moved out. Of course she wouldn't let me pack my own stuff,lost cables to bose 321 surround system. New place i have to route wires under couch so i needed a longer 12 ft optical wire. Didnt have at store,online ones i could see were pricey. Guy helped me find on on their website cheaper and used my points to pay for it. Shipped to my house in two days. Very helpful. No blank stares or i dont knows. Complete pros.

    I bought a more expensive one that worked fine but then I saw this one on line at Best Buy for about one third of the price. It was a no-brainer. And it works great. I wish I had bought this years ago. It made my TV/stereo system far less complicated.

    The additional length in this Digital Optical Cable allows me to connect devices that are not set right near each other. I can put the cable/satelite boxes and other players and consoles a little further apart and still transmit to and from them. Great price on Best Buys brand!!

    Have been using this for some months now with the cable connected from my Apple TV to my Home Theater system and it plays beautifully. Haven't run into any problems as of yet. Save your money on the prime cables and pull the trigger on a wallet saver that delivers over its budget.
