    It works fine. Nothing special about it. A little bit pricey for what it is.

    This cable worked 100% as expected. I could have saved $30 getting one elsewhere, but I had to have it to finish a job. Only complaint was the price.

    Good value but seems flimsy. Not nearly as durable as other cables I've owned. Will see how long it lasts.

    I was very upset I could not get these to work with my 2 year old TV. returned and the store manager said optical cable don't make a difference with picture and sound. Well, I don't know what his experience is. But when I connected other optical cable to my Bose and Samsung. TV picture and sound popped. So I returned them being very disappointed

    The Rocket-Fish audio cables are average at best. From time to time there is a surge that goes through the line and that is very annoying.

    Non-standard base prevents use

    The rocketfish optical cable features a non-standard base (the silver part behind the connector). While it does look good, it prevents use in many standard optical connectors. The Insignia optical cable on the other hand is more standardized and fits easily. Honestly, there is no performance/technical benefit to purchasing this more expensive (or any other) optical cable. Fiber transmits using light: the quality of the cable, insulation, or even expensive metal contacts will not change the speed of light or improve the "quality" of the connection. Save your money.

    I didn't need it as it turns out. When I tried to return it it was 2 weeks later and they I couldn't return it because it was past the time that was allowed to return item. Not a great return policy. He'll make me think twice about buying things from Best buy

    The plastic housing on either side is to big for the slots in my Bose receiver. So any movement causes it to pop out of its slot.

    Does the job. Likely my equipment is too old to notice any difference despite the cord type used.
