    Long enough cord to reach even if you have the TV on the wall, and the sound bar on the dresser/TV stand. Good quality. Easy set up.

    I needed an optical cable for my recently purchased Samsung Soundbar and was surprised that Samsung didn't include one. So, I headed to my local Best Buy and the Insignia audio cable fit my needs completely. It connected to my soundbar and provided perfect sound and connectivity and given the size of the cable, it wasn't too bulky or cumbersome (and those who have home audio know how numerous the cables can be).

    Absolutely Perfect!!!! Recent power outages damaged my HDMI input/output to my soundbar/tv. So my other option was to hook it up through Optical. Seriously, wish I would have done that to begin with.....They said (Samsung) sound was optimal with HDMI but it is honestly better with the Optical and they said going thru optical would mean using two remotes. Ugh! But NO!!!! it totally works with the Roku remote to turn on and off both devices! PERFECT!

    Since this cable carries digital data rather than analog audio, and since it has been an industry standard for so long, I was able to connect my modern TV to a really old 5.1 stereo, and it still sounds amazing! This cable is the perfect length and is built out of a high quality plastic.

    I bought this cable to connect an older Bose stereo to our TV. The Bose doesn't have an HDMI connection and this apparently gives the best quality sound connection. It was easy to install and works fine. (Figuring out how to configure the Bose to recognize the cable was another matter.)

    Perfect cable to connect Bose external speaker providing flawless sound. Easy connection to any smart television. Don’t just use the internal speaker. Upgrade and experience sound the way it was intended. A little pricey but worth every penny.

    Great value for the length of the cable! No issues whatsoever! I purchased this to connect a digital audio splitter to external speakers and headphones, and it works great. No signal/sound loss at all.

    Got this optical cable for a sound bar I purchased. Getting great sound now. Just plug it in and enjoy! It has a marking on it where you know which side to insert on the tv and sound bar. Very handy!

    This is a great cable. Used it to connect the soundbar to the tv. It worked well. You have to make sure it's pushed in all the way or it's just floppy.
