    As optical cable, the sound quality remains in the average... price was also not really fair compared to the quality.

    I’m not sure if the sometimes mild audio coming from my sound system is due to these cables but they work just fine.

    This Rocketfish Optical Audio Cable did not work with my Samsung TV. It wouldn't lock into the port. I compared it to an older cable that did fit. The silver sleeve on the Rocketfish cable is too long and leaves the plug in 1/16" short.

    Can't really attest to the quality of the cable. The TV did not put out the optical signal to add the sound bar.

    Lock tabs suck

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Purchased the shorter cable first and returned it due to the lock tabs not holding it in place in my JBL sound bar, purchased the longer one so I would have enough cable to tape it in to the sound bar since it also had poorly designed lock tabs. Had to stay with rocketfish brand as it was all that was available at the time at bestbuy.

    I have no idea if these are any good as the device they were purchased for did not work. Yet again 50 words were demanded and in the spirit of 50 words I have typed hopefully 50 words are you getting the message yet?
