Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Belkin PureAV Digital Optical Cable is ideal for DTS and Dolby Digital surround sound home theater setups. It uses polished optical terminations and optical fiber to transfer digital signals, which prevents electromagnetic and radio frequency noise, leaving you with greater sonic accuracy and a more detailed, natural sound. The precision-molded, corrosion-resistant connectors help produce a natural-sounding midrange, and the cable is manufactured to stand up to extended use.

5.0 out of 5 stars High Quality / Low Price, March 22, 2007

As an owner of five of these cables that are hooked up to my sound system, I thought I'd write a quick review for two simple reasons. First off, I initially decided to write my review because the only-other-review (at the time I'm writing this) is for 1-star?!? I'm hoping the law of averages washes-out the 1-star review simply because this is NOT a 1-star product...The only way to beef-up the number of stars this product deserves is to speak up, so I am! :-)

That said, my second reason for the review is so I can let other prospective buyers out there know that the quality of the cable is Excellent. In fact, I'd compare the craftsmanship to that of a Monster-branded cable at a much more reasonable price! Belkin has stayed in business all these years because they are a top-maker of A/V and Computer cables and it shows here.

If you're looking for a High Quality Optical Cable at an Affordable price, then Belkin's definitely a solution worth your consideration. Happy A/Ving!!

2.0 out of 5 stars works but...., September 26, 2007

This review is from: Belkin AV20000-06 PureAV Digital Optical Cable (6 feet) (Electronics)

The item works fine when it is plugged in, the problem is that it unplugs VERY easily. The part that holds the plug in place just does not "snap" in like my other cords. If you don't move the cord (or any other cords adjacent to it) its really not a problem, but if you components are in a hard to get to location (which mine are) and you move the item it is plugged into (to dust, or adjust cords, or add other components) then it does occasionally come unplugged. For that reason I ended up buying another cord to take its place and moved it to a location that is easier to get to and less likely to come unplugged.

The ends on the cables will not stay in the device, there is no locking mechanism.
