This is a welcome product in a world of $20 cables.The cable looks and feels like a quality product and does its job well.Some people have complained about the cable not clicking or falling out. This was not an issue for me.My only complaint was that the cable doesn't provide a visual indicator that its active like some other cables, but that can be desirable in some scenarios and I love the price.
Unlike analog signals, a digital signal either works or it doesn't. After carefully shaving the outer casing of the connector with a razor blade, the cable pushed in far enough to make the proper connection and click in place. There is no such thing as a inferior cable introducing noise and degrading the picture.
Both cables then worked great. These cables work, period. I purchased two cables, one for my Tivo HD to Onkyo receiver and the other for my Panasonic Blue Ray to Onkyo receiver.
It was hitting the square cut-out on the frame of the Tivo. The connector did not want to stay in the Tivo optical port. I realized that the rubber body on the outside of the cable connector was to fat to fit into the recessed receptacle.
If I spent lots of money for the cables, I would rate this lower because of the modification I needed to make, but getting two cables for less than $2, wow.
It then stopped working. I checked in on different electronics, and the result was the same. This product worked for literally a minute. The product was cheap so it isn't a bog loss at all, but it is a pain to be forced to buy a new cable now.
It works great, I have had this for two years and no issues. The sound quality is superb :)
if you are looking for a cable that get the job done and you don't care about how plain the outside looks this is the cable for you
