KabelDirekt TOSLINK – Optical Audio Cable – 6ft – Fiber Optic Cord, S/PDIF Digital Audio Optical Cable for Soundbar, Stereo Systems, Home Cinema, Xbox One/PS4 – Designed in Germany

To gamers out there, that phrase means something different, but I assure everyone reading that I have no issues with this cable and it feels high quality. It isn’t an intricate or complex device and I’m no expert in cables so I can’t say much other than “it looks good, feels good, and works (good) well”. If there should be any gripe, it should be the lack of an angled plug for cable management but even then that’s a tall ask since different devices mean different spacing around that port. It was a good buy for me

The Short:This is digital. 1 and 0. On or Off. Yes or No. The cable works or it doesn't. It works every time. The gold plating, fancy carbon fiber look cover, etc is just eye candy and while it looks nice, it's just looks. So it's a nice looking cable, that looks well made, and functions as it should. That's it - it works. You can stop here.The Long: (if you are really bored)So lets review...0) FIRST - I can't hear a difference between one SPDIF cable and another. If I did hear a difference, it meant the cable or connection was damaged.1) ALL streaming over the internet, Blue-Ray, DVD, CD, etc is DIGITAL.2) For you to HEAR digital, it has to be converted to analog because your ears are analog.3) That converter is a DAC, or Digital to Analog Converter.4) IF you have a nice receiver with SPDIF inputs or you have one of those cool little standalone DACs, AND you haven't spent your life savings on a high-end component, you probably have a better DAC on the receiver (or the standalone, but then why are you reading this) than on the components. I'm sure my sub $100 blue-ray, my $500 TV and my 25 year old CD player do not have as good a DAC as myYes, in general, the digital bridge between devices is better than an analog bridge IF you have a good DAC on the receiving end of the circuit. My Yamaha receiver has a better DAC than my TV, my HTPC/Streamer or my CD player. All of these are relatively nice components, but I didn't spend my child's college fund on them. So I use one of these with my CD player, my HTPC, and my TV. My Blue-ray goes to the TV via HDMI, so the digital audio stream is sent from the TV to the DAC on the receiver. I've done a lot of AB testing and this is definitely a better setup for me than using RCA analog cables to the receiver from any of these components. AND if I upgrade my receiver, I automatically upgrade all of the components.Now, wake up and do something.

So nice to have a quality TOSLINK cable! The last one I had was wobbly and barely stayed in place, so I thought my soundbar was broken. This one is so nice! It’s thick and sturdy. It clicks in place and does the job! Saved me from unnecessarily replacing my soundbar!!

Este artículo lo compré para mi primo que lo necesitaba mucho, ya que en mi país no encontraba el ideal y le hice el favor de comprárselo en Amazon y la verdad resultó perfecto. Hasta ahorita lo sigue usando y no se ha presentado novedades, lo recomiendo al 100%

UPDATE: The seller contacted me to resolve the situation and offered a full refund. I added a star for excellent customer service.The cable did not pass a signal at first but after fiddling with the connector, it finally worked. The connectors on mine were sloppy and did not click in for a solid connection. I was using it on pricey equipment, so the receiving connectors are not to blame. It was on sale and I thought an optical signal is an optical signal so why spend more on an expensive cable? I got the answer. It’s because the quality cables also have better connectors. I’ll be replacing it with a solid one because I don’t trust these connections to last.

Awesome clear concise sound is finally pumping through my hearing aids provided through the transmitter provided by my audiologist so I could hear my television... Heavy duty construction, and it can be purchased at a specific length to accommodate your need. My new Television never sounded so good... Nothing like a clean connection, now to just sit back and enjoy1

These resolved my issue! I had all sorts of issues with my sound bar. Such as, the sound stopped and loud popping. When I received this, the difference in the quality compared to the optical cable that came with the sound bar was day and night.

Works great! And received items quickly! Plugged to soundbar that has been sitting there for a year. Finally bought the cable and waaaalllaaaa my soundbar is finally being used.
