what do you say about a product like this? It works very well and has held up very well at a very cheap price.thxbob

Has worked goo over the past months in connecting my sound bar to my Tv.

These cables are excellent. The connectors are well build and stay in place. The cable is a soft rubber that doesn't crimp. And obviously they work. With most digital cables, particularly digital audio cables, they either work or they don't. There isn't any in between. Quality is only really a concern with analog audio cables, such as RCA. But still, with optical cables you want something that will last and, most importantly, with connectors that will STAY IN PLACE. These meet those requirements.I have to say I am very impressed by Amazon's stuff overall and in particular all of the cables/wire I have purchased from them. I am kind the kind of guy who has an entire large bin full of cables and wire in my closet. Literally dozens and dozens of cables ranging from old school analog audio and video to modern day display port and HDMIs. They also range from one end of the spectrum to the other in terms of quality, some I have are total junk and have never been used, others are very high end and were very expensive. Amazon Basics cables are really very excellent for the money. I wouldn't put them in the highest tier of build quality but for digital cables they are more than good enough.

I like the price for. The. Lenght

I was skeptical about some of the reviews regarding the plug not staying in place. When I first plugged it in, (temporarily) it didn't seem to fit right but worked ok after pushing it in rather hard.When chasing the cable down inside the wall for the permanent installation. I accidentally discovered a very small (hard to notice) protective cap on each end just covering the metal tip. After removing the cap the plug snapped into place just as I would have expected. Also found that the quality of sound was improved.My hunch regarding the poor reviews of the plug not remaining in place may be because the cap was not removed.

I have used a number of optical cables over the years, but this one is one of the best ones I have tried. First, I purchased the 10 foot length as the cables that come with most electronics are frustratingly short. The optical cable that this one is replacing was embarrasingly thin and low quality. This was a perfect length for me to hook up my new television to my soundbar.It feels robust and like a quality product when I have it in my hands. The transition from the cable itself to the optical connection feels very well done and I have no fear of it ripping or splitting. The cable itself is very flexible. The connections themselves sit very firmly in the components that they attach to, which I appreciate. I have no worries of them accidentally coming unhooked.The sound is great, the quality of construction and of the connection points themselves is excellent. For the price it is hard to imagine a better value for the money. I will buy this again when the need arises in the future. 5 stars. Highly recommend!

Amazon-branded products do give peace of mind (except for some razor blades I got a while ago).This cable works perfectly, as intended, comes in perfectly packaged and is affordable.While I was looking for an optical cable, Amazon offered the best price-specs overall.Cable is very sturdy.Have been using it for months with no issues at all.

There seems to be some confusion about how these AmazonBasics Optical audio cables fit or don’t fit into your devices. They fit fine.You simply need to remove the rubber cap that protects the metal contact on the end of the cable. See photos. Remove the rubber protective cap! Voila. Fits fine, clicks in, great.It seems that all of the one star reviews of these cables complaining about the lack of fit of the cables are because of user error. I almost bought a more expensive cable because I read a bunch of one-star reviews where folks apparently did not recognize that this rubber cap is removable.I gave 5 stars because having a rubber cap to protect the contact is a fantastic idea. Maybe Amazon need to include a note about removing the rubber caps in / on the packaging so users don’t make this silly error.So far works great. Sound quality? Don’t know yet.
