We have several Mediabridge optical and HDMI cables in our system as well as a couple of Monster. There is no difference except you get to keep more of your own cash with Mediabridge. Luv 'Em!

Used to carry audio from PS3 to Yamaha Receiver. Works as expected, while connections seem solid.

Love this Meidabridge Optical cable, as well as their HDMI cables.
Would recommend them to anyone. I've used higher end products in the
past that were THX certified, but when this new HDMI format came along
and with prices going for excess of over $100 (when they first came out),
and yet you were able to find them on line for a fraction of the cost, why
would anyone pay that much?!? I love nice, high end products, but the more
I researched, the more I came to believe what people were saying, and that is
"The industry is ripping consumers off".

Good sound quality, I am using the optical out on my PS3 to connect my Z5500 Speakers. Sounds great, all my games are 5.1 now :)

Plastic ends are undersized resulting in loose termination. Unable to lock into Toslink sockets in all my equipment.

The cables certainly look nice out of the box with nice thick braiding, but that's about all I can say that's positive. The ends are these cheap plastic screw on jobs that easily slip off when plugging in. My main issue is that in most devices I tried these with (PS3, 360, receiver, and TV with optical out) there was no "click" to hold the cables in place. They would just slip right out of the device when moved. For so called "premium" cables this shouldn't happen. Even the cheapies that I've bought click into place. The sound is fine if the cables stay connected. Returned for refund. 1st time I've done a return with Amazon (also returned an optical splitter at the time that flat out didn't work) and very pleased with the return process.

The cable and the connectors look like very high quality. The only issue I have with the cable is that it does not snap securely into the optical ports. This was true on both ends that connected to the TV and the receiver. The TV and receiver are different brands (SONY and Pioneer), so that leads me to think it is the cable and not the ports on the electronics.

Don't get ripped off by buying one of these at your local Best Buy for like $30. Get this one, enjoy the quality and performance, and take the extra cash and go out to eat. Love it.

This is a great cable. It looks great and works great. don't have any complaints

I have bought several Mediabridge products from Amazon. It is as simple as this; for quality and value they cannot be beat!
