BlueRiggerDigital Optical Audio Toslink Cable (15FT, Fiber Optic Cord, in-Wall CL3 Rated, 24K Gold-Plated) - Compatible with Home Theatre, Sound Bar, TV, Xbox, PlayStation PS4

Optic cable seems well made and works perfectly and has a nice long length at a very reasonable price

I needed a Toslink audio cable to attach a media center computer I had just purchased to my home theater sound system and the fastest, the best, and the least expensive way to get one is to order it from Amazon.I initially ordered this Mediabridge - Toslink Cable - Optical Digital Audio Cable - 10 feet as I had ordered Mediabridge products in the past and was satisfied with them.Not this one, though. I use a C2G / Cables to Go 40324 3-Play Component Video and TOSLINK Digital Audio High Performance Selector Switch (Black) in conjunction with my home theater setup and, though this cable appeared to be well-made, it just would not fit into the Toslink port on the the switch box. I telephoned Mediabridge and they told me that they were aware of their cable not fitting into all devices (this was mentioned in some of the 1-star reviews to which I should have paid more attention).So I returned it to Amazon (an easy and convenient process) and the same day I returned it, I ordered this BlueRigger Digital Optical Audio Toslink Cable(10 feet).It is very well-made and it fits perfectly into the ports where I need it. Based on its physical design, I am certain that it will fit into any device which uses a Toslink cable.It works perfectly too, carrying and transferring sound in whatever format the source supplies including, of course, full surround sound in DTS and/or Dolby Digital.I always like to have spares so, as this cable delivers excellent value for money and as I like it so much, yesterday I ordered three more of them!I highly recommend this BlueRigger Toslink cable to you. I'm sure you'll like it too.

This product saved me from having to upgrade my home theater receiver to one with HDMI capability (see description of set-up at bottom if you are interested).Beyond that, the product does exactly what it is supposed to do - run digital sound between components, which in my opinion, is the mark of an excellent product. The cable is also a great value at $7.99 (what I paid in August of 2012) and costs far less than what many competitors charge (including the "bogeyman" of cables).The company appears to have good customer service in that I received an email asking if I was happy with my product, however, because I am, I did not have to test Blue Rigger's service beyond that.As far as quality goes, the cable is sturdy, thin (in a good way - not flimsy), and the connection points are solid and snap snugly into place.I will buy products from Blue Rigger in the future for my connection needsFor those interested in my system setup, read on. For the rest, the product review ends here.I ran this cable through the wall to connect it from my Plasma TV to my old Pioneer 5.1 channel receiver and it works perfectly.For those out there wondering why I would use a digital optical cable instead of HDMI, the answer is simple - my receiver is not HDMI capable. One can get around that conundrum though by using the TV itself as the "center" of their system for the input of all signals (thereby using the TV for source switching between Blu-Ray, Cable, Internet TV, etc.), and run the sound through the TV's "output" to the digital "input" on my receiver. This way I get the benefit of a digital picture (via HDMI cables plugged directly into the TV) and 5.1 digital sound (via the digital optical "out" from the TV to the receiver) without having to upgrade my receiver at this point. I ran the same set-up at my parents house years ago and it has been working without a problem ever since (although I can't say there is no user error).
