    I needed an alternative to HDMI with my pioneer vsx-1020. An optical cable was suggested. So I acquired this product. Plug & play.

    Great cable to connect my Bose sound bar to my TV using the optical port. Clear sound and very easy to connect. I would recommend this cable for any TV needing to connect to a sound bar if you have optical ports on both.

    Excellent optical audio cable. I've always trusted Rocketfish, and this product does exactly what you need. It's a bit less expensive than some competitors' offerings - but don't let that make you nervous. This is a high quality, reliable product.

    Purchased to connect DVD player to sound bar. Prior to purchase had to disconnect HDMI cord (cable box to sound bar cord) & plug DVD HDMI into sound bar & then undo it all to watch cable again. This cord allows me to hsve both devices connected simultaneously & just use the tv remote to switch from tv (HDMI 1) to DVD on the screen. Easy fix to an annoying issue!!

    4' long cable, easy to plug in. Quality seems to be very good, feels very well constructed. Took me a while to get the audio working (forgot to disconnect the standard audio jack - Doh!) Very happy with the quality of the audio, significantly louder than it was before. Used to have the audio sent at 20, now it's set at 10.

    Works like a charm! Easy to install, and connects my TV sound to my Receiver in seconds. Make sure you buy one longer than you think you will need! I fished this through my fireplace and kind of wished I would have bought a 15' for greater ease. It turned out to be just enough.

    New TV. New surround sound. What's this optical audio thing? Optical did wonders when they upgraded my internet, so it must be good. Gotta do this! Know those notices on products like, "Bolts not for human consumption."? Ever wonder who that's for? Welp! I think I found out ... Could not get the cable to plug into my TV! Wasn't going to happen, no way, no how! What thu ... ?! Went to the TV, and the sound manufacturer's sites. No help there. Still... there's gotta be a trick I'm missing ... Ended up on YouTube ... These cables need a BIG notice on the box! "Remove protective end caps before inserting." (DOH!!) Plugged in Very easily (without those little caps)! Sound is Amazing! 5 Stars Overall! I subtracted one star from "Ease of use", but that's on ME for not knowing any better. (Sorry!)

    Purchased this based on recommendations from other customers who also purchased the Insignia 2.0 channel mini soundbar. The quality of sound is fantastic. Plugs easily into TV and soundbar. Would highly recommend.

    I purchased this for a surround sound system that we bought during Black Friday. It was an inexpensive Samsung with a DVD player. This cord works great and produces better than the last cheap surround sound system that we had. Glad I went with this cord, and the length is perfect. Save your ties if you don’t need the whole 12’, I only needed 8’.
