Optical Cable 3 ft. Reviews
Don't buy into the expensive cable hype. If they both transmit light and have decent quality connectors attached, why pay more. I never understood why one piece of flexible glass cost so much more than another. I bought a few of these cables and each one has performed just like the four expensive-brand cables I bought in the past. These work perfectly.
I purchased 5 of these with one of the multiple Toslink switches. DON'T EVEN BOTHER. I tried each one seperately and none of them worked with the switch. They didn't work for me at all. Even more frustrating, was the fact that only one out of five work at all with my 5.1 surround sound system. Problem solved.
Then I thought, maybe the selector switch was bad. I paid about 45 times more for the name brand cables. I threw these things in the trash. It was more than worth it. But after purchasing name brand 3ft optical cables from one of the superstores, I found that the switch works great.
Why pay more. If you only need a short optical cord, you can get this one for $3.00 with shipping and it works fine.
Also, do not crimp the cable. Brand means nothing. Kinda trick to make sure you are placing it in correctly and push it in snug. A gold fitting means squat. Once my less then less than a buck optical cable arrived and I saw that it delivered a light signal just like the MONSTER cable with the MONSTER price did, I returned that overpriced cable faster than you can say jack rabbit. You are dealing with fiber optics here so keep the cord from bending at a sharp able to keep your light passageway from getting blocked.
Glad Circuit City has a 30 return policy with receipt because I sure used it. Now regarding these optical cables. ENJOY AND SAVE BIG BUCKS. OK, you have been shopping for cables to finish off your new home theater system and time after time a salesperson tells you about MONSTER cables. Well, when it comes to HDMI or Red/Blue/Green component cables, getting something nice with gold fittings is the way to go but spending big bucks to buy the MONSTER brand name is way over rated. Example, I purchased a MONSTER Cable on sale for $38 bucks before I saw this cable on Amazon.com. When installing your optical cable, look close at the shape of the fitting and the shape of the whole it goes in.
Transferring a light signal is transferring a light signal. Do not jam it in without lining up which side is up. Search our some similar but way cheaper cables on Amazon.com. As long as the optical cable you buy delivers the light signal from a cable box to your TV or audio system, you good to go.
Ended up being too short and required repositing of my music system. Great price and comparable sound quality to brand-name cables for a fraction of the price.
