Like most optical cables, the ends can be a bear to actually insert into the plug holes in your equipment. Do remember to remove the little protective nubs from the end of the insert piece. Otherwise you’ll waste a lot of time and patience trying to insert the end into the plug hole before realizing what’s happening.
Does its job! The build quality is great and feels sturdy. The sound quality sounds great with no distortion at all.
Sehr gute Qualitt mehr gibt’s nicht zu sagen Ton bertragung ist auch supe
Enjoyed getting this cable to try out. It works very well and feels great in the hand while you’re installing it. It looks good as well. Looking forward to putting it to good use.
Plug and play! This cord is perfect for my need.
You can tell right away that this cable has good thickness to it, and is still flexible with a nice braided cover. Sound quality is a big improvement over RCA cables. If you don’t really need a long cable for your application, it’s hard to go wrong for the price.
Quality product sound is amazing great value for money
Delivery was spot on 2 days early couldn’t ask for more
I used this cable to hook up a soundbar to my TV. I’m very impressed with the quality of the sound coming through my audio equipment with this cable. My subwoofer produces excellent bass response through this cable also. I highly recommend it.
I still remember that toslink cables that came with stuff, they were cheap plastic ones you handled gingerly. This one is not like that.
1 meter is about the perfect length, not too long but long enough to go between components. the ends are not too hard to insert but they fit snuggly.
Glad I got these.
Just snap off the plastic covers on the end of each connector and you’ll be good to go! Amazing audio quality.
Toslink is a nice way to send digital audio from a source component to a TV, A/V receiver, or amplifier having its own internal DAC. While I have no way to know if there’s more errors I can say it works well and sounds great which is what matters. So, I can recommend this cable for the fine performance to cost value it provides. The quality is plain nice to look at with it’s solid connectors and beefy shielding.
I had to laugh when I saw the gold tips on this cable: while gold connectors might make sense on cables that carry electrical signals (analog or digital), they’re irrelevant for optical cables, the tips are just the mechanical connection into the socket which aligns the optical fiber-ends. So there’s no difference between this tip and the black tip of other cables like this (such as the Amazon Basics one).
That said, this cable does fit into the proper sockets just fine, and works as well as the other such cables I’ve tried. I used it to connect my SBX4 sound card with an Fiio BTA30Pro DAC, and listened to it with earbuds as well as external speakers, didn’t experience any problems. I didn’t expect, and didn’t perceive, any audio superiority to the Amz Basics optical cable I had been using, so there’s no reason there to prefer one over the other. Physically though this one is just a bit more stiff, so I tend to prefer the more pliable Amz cable. If that’s not a concern, I would recommend buying whichever is available and cheaper.
MY SURROUND SOUND WI-FI BAR WAS MISSING SOMETHING (HAD A 5 SECOND DELAY IN SOUND), ONCE I PLUGGED THIS IN AND GOT RID OF THE BLUE-TOOTH SETTING THE VOICES FINALLY MATCHED THE LIPS, LONG OVER DUED
The title says it all. Thus is a optic sound cable and it gets the job done no muss no fuss.
We purchased a sound bar that had wireless capability however we realized that our television was a little bit older than we thought and did not have wireless capability to connect to the sound bar. So we decided to order the digital optical audio cable to connect the sound bar to the Samsung television and we have. The digital optical audio cable connected perfectly with the television and the sound bar and now we have sound for our television.
I picked up a Fibbr optical audio cable in the 3.3 ft length to better match the distance between my HTPC and receiver. The optical cable is built very sturdy, with a nice braided covering on the wire, a hefty metal boot at the connector, a green elastic color-code band around the boot, and what appears to be a gold-painted molded plastic interface/connector around the optical fiber. When it first arrived, the fiber was protected with clear rubber caps that was easy to remove with a fingernail. The extreme symmetry of the round boot was a bit odd when trying to plug in the connector and maintaining the correct orientation, since the connection is actually keyed to one orientation. The cable has been performing just fine for the past week.
I was only able to get this in the 1m (3.3 feet) length. That isn’t long enough to go from a TV to a receiver in the same entertainment center. I had to get an optical audio extension to make it work. Get the 2m one and it should do the trick.
