    Well priced for the quality. Needed a long cable to go behind the wall and remain hidden. No issues after fishing it through the wall, having used electrical tape to attach it to a fiberglass fish stick.

    Best Quality for the audio system of your dreams. Certainly long enough to reach past heavy wooden furniture or minimalistic high tables. Trust the name. No frills. A solid choice. Very sturdy nice and protective material.

    I had purchased a shorter cable for my surround system that I thought it was going to work, but it didn't so I had to go back for a longer cable, but I I still kept the short one just in case.

    My cat chewed and destroyed my original optical that was hooked into my soundbar. That was a very think cable. This Insignia cable is thicker and works wonderfully. My cat stays away from it. The sound is great while using my Samsung soundbar.

    The speaker system I purchased had a rather shot cable with it which limited where I could locate the main speaker which is why I jumped on this longer cable while it was on sale. By repositioning the main speaker more towards the center of the room balanced coverage in conjunction with the sub-woofer to create a better listening experience.

    I had a digital optical audio cable, but due to a different mounting configuration I needed a longer one. I purchased this cable and have been happy with it so far.

    The cable works like it should, it's easy to install, and the bit of advice from the sales associate to remove the protective covers on the ends before trying to plug in the cable was on point. I'm a happy camper.
