5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Cable, December 5, 2005
By David (Chicago) - See all my reviews
First off, the cable is 6 feet long. For some reason this isn't in the product description, so there it is. Anyway, having said that, I can say with 100% certainty that this cable is every bit as good as my much, MUCH more expensive Monster Toslink cable. I got this cable to replace the optical one because I'm switching soundcards on my computer and the new one doesn't have optical output. Anyway, I tested them side by side and I couldn't tell a difference. I'm already using Monster speaker cable which does make a HUGE difference over the junky cable that came with my Logitech Z-680's. Anyway, I could tell no difference whatsoever switching between the two. The only real difference is the price. I paid more than ten times as much for the Monster Toslink cable. So, if you're debating whether to go with this or something more expensive my reccomendation is to go with this cable. It'll save you a lot of money and you'll get the exact same performance.

As others have said, the reason that the cheaper cable is able to match the more expensive cable is the digital signal. Either the cable works or it doesn't work. There really isn't much (if any) "middle ground" as there is with analog cables. At first I was skeptical after reading all the hype about the better speaker cables, but now after having used both I know that that's just what it is: hype.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cheap DIGITAL AUDIO cable is all you need, December 14, 2004
By Galileo Galilei (Frostbite Falls, MN USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
When folks talk about audio quality, they're typically referring to ANALOG components. A DIGITAL cable or other component either works or it doesn't. If a single bit is off in a DIGITAL audio signal, the untrained ear will hear the loud blip or screech. That is to say, even cheap components will work with 100% quality (or they're literally useless junk and could not be sold). (If digital video bit is bad, it will result in a single bad pixel, which is much harder to pick up with the eye.) Analog components have a better or worse quality level; digital components are either right or wrong. There's no middle ground and no reason to pay up because quality cannot improve.

Most of the other reviews appear to be from the manufacturer or from megalomaniacs and I would disregard them; although you have to love the "serious audiophile".

5.0 out of 5 stars Great product, August 31, 2007
Acoustic research makes some fine cables and this is another good example. My dvd-audio disc and movies sound awesome when run through this cable. I totally recommend this cable unless you plan to run it over 10 ft. In that case look to buy a optical digital cable instead as from what I've read, audiophiles recommend optical for longer runs. Shorter runs seem to be identical between digital coax, and digital optical.
