    Optical cable is way better other cables. It has no problem keeping the same quality even in long length. Highly recommended.

    My surround sound started to not work every now and then. Was not for sure if it was the receiver or the optical cable. So I went with the cheaper option of replacing the cable first. Havent had any problem since. Just hope these last for 20 plus years like my other ones did.

    No sound from the TV. Rebooted the cable modem & Wifi router. Last time it was the optical cable. Ran down to Best Buy and bought this. My fault in thinking a 4 foot cable could make a 5 foot span with creativity. Went back and exchanged easily for an 8 foot cable & paid the difference.

    Used this to hook up or LG sound bar to our LG 86' LED TV and the sound is crisp and so clear. Even with it being 12 ft. the sound is fantastic.

    Optical audio cable solved our problem.

    We used this optical audio cable to connect an old Onkyo receiver to a new Samsung QLed smart TV. It worked perfectly to hear surround sound. The quality of sound is good on all speakers. However, we do have to crank the receiver about 10-15 volume numbers louder than it was with the older Samsung tv. That's easy enough! This optical cord was a very inexpensive way to fix our surround sound system problem. Otherwise we would have had to spend hundreds of dollars to buy a new receiver. It works with our older dvd player and the tv.

    This wire stays secure in my AV/Tuner. The length of wire is big enough to reach the TV to the tuner. It has an excellent sound from the optical cable.

    [Employee of bestbuy] Cable is working well with an old model tv and new soundbar. Sound quality is excellent. Was easy to setup once the caps were removed. Even the cable caps felt off good quality. One thing to be aware of the cable caps are not attached to the cable.
