    I purchased this rocket fish optical cable and was impressed with the build quality! This was my first time buying online and picking up at the store, so it was a breeze!

    A Doubter

    I was doubtful when the Best Buy person told me the Rocketfish Optical cable would serve as a needed needed link for my surround sound hook up to our new TV. I installed it as directed and as I was told by the Best Buy sales person, it worked just fine. Prior to my visit to Best Buy I was fairly well convinced that I'd need to buy a new receiver in order to get my 8 year old sound system to work. This was an easy fix and much more easy on my billfold.

    I needed a short Digital Optical Audio Cable in a hurry. BB had the selection and of course they stock good quality stuff. They had it when I needed it and the price was reasonable.

    Purchased a sound bar and a surround sound with blueray for two different televisions. Neither came with digital output audio cables. Once I purchased these, all was right with the world!

    Good product. Make sure to remove the plastic tips on the end of connection or it won't plug in. Had to Google this cause it wasn't plugging in. First audio optical cable.

    I thought the cord was thin and flimsy, but it ended being the exact opposite. I had to remount the sound bar because of the cord thickness. Awesome product

    My mother n law's cat chewed thru the original digital optical for my Bose surround sound so I went to BB to get a replacement. Only down side is that one 4 ft cord is SO expensive!

    I had to get these because my new tv did not have an aux output. It works great but lags about 1/4 of a second behind the picture rate. This is a good resort if you have no other options to hook a sound bar or some speakers.
