Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the 6' Digital Optical Audio Cable's sound quality, ease of use, price, and cable length. Many appreciate its compatibility with their existing audio setups. While some users noted the lack of HDMI ports, the positive feedback on other features outweighs this concern. The cable is praised for providing a good audio experience at a reasonable price.

    I needed to connect an optical wire from my TV to an amplifier’s coaxial connectors through an optical-coaxial converter. A department manager pointed me in the right direction for the converter, and the necessary optical cable. The cable works perfectly (as does the converter box, rated elsewhere).

    I had never used an optical cord before. The cord was easy to use, and very self explanatory. Nothing to it!

    The cable did the job I was looking for. I don't have top of the line equipment so I cannot tell if the cable makes a difference on sound or video quality .

    Just like with HDMI cables there isn't a reason to spend more money on an optical cable. They work the same.

    It is a glass cable.. It works great and I have no issues with this.. Just remember it is glass and it does't have a high bend point nor a thick sheath to protect it.. if you set it up and leave it along it will be fine.. If you move your system around a lot like Travel I would get a different one.

    Used this cable along with an AUX converter box to get my older sound bar working. It works great, though I fell it was a little more money than expected.
