    Purchased this based on recommendations from other customers who also purchased the Insignia 2.0 channel mini soundbar. The quality of sound is fantastic. Plugs easily into TV and soundbar. Would highly recommend.

    4' long cable, easy to plug in. Quality seems to be very good, feels very well constructed. Took me a while to get the audio working (forgot to disconnect the standard audio jack - Doh!) Very happy with the quality of the audio, significantly louder than it was before. Used to have the audio sent at 20, now it's set at 10.

    New TV. New surround sound. What's this optical audio thing? Optical did wonders when they upgraded my internet, so it must be good. Gotta do this! Know those notices on products like, "Bolts not for human consumption."? Ever wonder who that's for? Welp! I think I found out ... Could not get the cable to plug into my TV! Wasn't going to happen, no way, no how! What thu ... ?! Went to the TV, and the sound manufacturer's sites. No help there. Still... there's gotta be a trick I'm missing ... Ended up on YouTube ... These cables need a BIG notice on the box! "Remove protective end caps before inserting." (DOH!!) Plugged in Very easily (without those little caps)! Sound is Amazing! 5 Stars Overall! I subtracted one star from "Ease of use", but that's on ME for not knowing any better. (Sorry!)

    DVD to sound bar

    Purchased to connect DVD player to sound bar. Prior to purchase had to disconnect HDMI cord (cable box to sound bar cord) & plug DVD HDMI into sound bar & then undo it all to watch cable again. This cord allows me to hsve both devices connected simultaneously & just use the tv remote to switch from tv (HDMI 1) to DVD on the screen. Easy fix to an annoying issue!!

    Used this to bypass using my old (2011) Bose system so I can stream directly from my TV. Reason to do this is to still get the amazing sound quality from your sound system, while streaming using your smart TV. I was using a Roku, however unfortunately they do not support 120hz displays (yet). So in order to get ultra smooth visual on the TV, I needed to use the smart TV as my source of streaming, which had an optical out for my Bose system. Long story short, this allowed me to have the smoothness of the 120hz refresh rate and still listen to my amazing sound system.

    I purchased this for a surround sound system that we bought during Black Friday. It was an inexpensive Samsung with a DVD player. This cord works great and produces better than the last cheap surround sound system that we had. Glad I went with this cord, and the length is perfect. Save your ties if you don’t need the whole 12’, I only needed 8’.
