Monoprice Premium S/PDIF (Toslink) Digital Optical Audio Cable - Silver - 6 Feet | Heavy Duty Mesh Jacket, Metal Connector Heads, For Play Station, Xbox one, Home theater & More

After trying to hook up my new Monoprice soundbar (with wireless sub) to my 11 year old Philips HDTV I was a little frustrated that the options on the soundbar didn't really help me to produce the expected quality sound using HDMI and other AV results from the older HDTV. The solution was within this Digital Optical Audio Cable! I could now experience sound that surpassed the HDTV's built-in speakers. This cable, although a little longer than what I needed for proper connection of HDTV to soundbar, easily coiled out of the way without sacrificing audio output. I only wish that the printed material with the soundbar had recommended this cable more strongly.

Solid build, flexible, durable, good tight fit. Build quality really is exceptional. As far as I can tell it?s shielding to avoid interference is top notch which in most scenarios isn?t an issue anyways. For those wondering about sound quality of course it?s perfect but it?s a digital interface. The cheapest optic line will sound exactly the same as the most expensive over short runs assuming there?s nothing to interfere with the signal as in most cases. Of course with analog cables quality is very important but not with digital. The reason to buy these is they should last longer, not slip out as easily as some others and give you peace of mind nothing?s interfering, it?s pure signal and the price is right. These are super high quality lines for the price of cheapies. Thank you MonoPrice
