    I bought it to hook up my wireless hearing aids. Plugged in and now I can hear the tv at the volume that suits me without upsetting my wife

    Just about all of our audio setups are connected through digital optical cords. It makes a slight difference so if you're on the fence about buying it, just give in. It will be worth it in the long run.

    Cord does what it is expected to do

    Optical cords seem to go bad, at least for me, much more often that other types of cords. I had bought an expensive optical cord for our PlayStation and it simply failed. I thought the input was fried but, instead I went to Best Buy to replace the cable hoping that was the problem. Luckily it was the cable and this much cheaper replacement cable is working just fine.

    I wanted an optical cable but I did want to spend a mint but I didn't want trash. This was a great buy. It did what it was supposed to do.

    The connector makes it so easy to hook up the sound bar basically anyone can use this and be enjoying their speakers as quick as one can plug it in.

    Works great and fits the speaker I bought it for. The wire was a bit too long but that doesn't take away from how good the product is

    Bought this for inexpensive soundbar for the tv. Didn't need anything expensive but I didn't want to use RCA connection (Red and white sound cables).

    My first optical cable purchase

    Never used this type of cable before, but my new TV didn't come with RCA jacks. So I just walked into Bust Buy and told them what I needed and then I walked out. Lucky for me, I have a Bose set up and it also accepted an optical cable. Sound is amazing, don't know why I didn't use these in the past as my Lifestyle system had the plug for it (years ago).

    New TV, new cables, that includes the audio cable. If you don't have a home theater system, you will be just fine with the HDMI.

    I have a 5 year old LG HDTV which still works fine but I am limited in HDMI inputs. Using this cable is a necessity and it solved my problem.

    Needed converter to connect my cable box with digital audio output to my surround sound amp and this worked great. Did not come with power supply so you need an available USB port for power.

    The Insignia cables deliver good performance for the price and it seems like I can always count on my local Best Buy to have them in stock.
