    After connecting my new Onkyo CD player with regular analog cables I was slightly disappointed but then read in the instructions that hooking up with optical cable would improve sound. Boy were they right. I found this cable on open box cable and it works great.

    Bought these cables to add a sound bar to a new smart TV for my dad. The internal speakers in these new thin TVs are not adequate for seniors. These cable help the speaker sound great.

    Needed this to connect the audio out from an Apple TV to a front input of an older, but high end and expensive at the time, AV receiver with limited HDMI inputs. Good work around without having to upgrade my 15 year old AV receiver that is still a solid performer.

    Got a new soundbar for the TV and needed an optical cable to go with it. This inexpensive, well made, cable did the trick.

    I bought this optical cable to have the Geek Squad Technicians use during the install of the in the wall wiring system for my LG 65" TV. I did not need the optical cable at the time of install, but had it added so when, and if I purchase a soundbar, it was already installed.

    I needed to connect a new tv to an older amp. This works perfectly. 6’ would have given me more flexibility for placement. Only options were 4’ or 12’ as 8’ was out of stock.

    I've had more expensive optical cables in the past and honestly you cannot tell the difference between this one and the ones that cost twice the price. The quality of the cable seems well made and it delivers the sound to my sound system as designed.

    Decent optical cables for the price. They're a little beefier than the cheap Wal-Mart ones.

    Theyre all the same, this ones just thinner shielded (not such a bad thing when you need a bit of a bend in the cable) and cheaper
