Works Great, but can Pull Out~
If you do a lot of foolin' around with your system, pulling and pushing components, pass on these as they don't snap into the ports. Other than that perfect optical cable.
POOR QUALITY CABLES
I was hoping to give at least a good review about customer service, but I could not. I give accurate product reviews on products purchased on Amazon and 98% of the time they are good. The 6' DIGITAL AUDIO OPTICAL FIBER OPTIC TOSLINK CABLE by DVI Gear are of poor quality. 2 out of 3 of the 6ft audio optical cables would not stay connected to the following: Directv HD...

Contrary to one of the other reviews, these cables DO snap into the ports, at least on my equipment. However, I had to push them harder than usual to get them to snap in, but once they're in, they're in tight. For this reason, I agree that these probably aren't the best choice for frequently connected and disconnected equipment, for fear of possible wear and tear on the cable or possibly the port. I leave mine plugged in, though.
These are standard quality cables that get the job done. They have metal ferrules at the tip, where all my other cables are just plastic. They seem a little bit stiffer than other optical cables I own. I connected mine to a Denon A/V receiver and a DirecTV receiver without any problems. I also did a quick test on a PlayStation 2 and a Panasonic DVD player without any problems.
For anyone who cares, the ones I received came with the clear connector caps, but the caps were not tethered to the cable (unlike the ones in the picture), nor did the cable have a peg to put the caps on when they aren't in use, like some do. In short, if you need the caps, don't lose them.
I bought this item because it was much cheaper to buy a 3-pack than buying similar cables individually elsewhere and paying shipping on each cable. I am quite satisfied with this purchase.

I needed this cable for my new Yamaha system that didnt feed audio thru the HDMI. All i needed was 1 cable and at quantity 3 the price was less than you could buy 1 at Best Buy. Works great, awesome price!

I ordered the 3 TOSLINK cables and they work great with my surround sound system. The connection to the audio receiver from the blu ray player, laptop, and cable box are secure and not lose. I highly recommend this product!

I'd almost purchased a toslink from radio sack for $14.99. I tried to find the individual cable for cheaper than this but I notice you have to pay a per item shipping. This 3 pack is less than $3 shipping, so its about $1 per cable to ship, can be that in this economy.
I'm feeding 2 optical outs from my ps2(still love my madden online), xbox360, and my samsung hd ota (*switched to coxial) running to my onkyo, with one single hdmi cable out to my TV.
They work great. They do plug in with a slight click but defnitely not as snug as say the rca component or hdmi cables. I'm not sure if optical cables fit tighter than this. I've used these cables with a mini toslink adapter to my Mac notebook and push digital music to my reciever and its excellent sound quality.
Would recommend.

These cables get the job done at a great price! We had just bought our first plasma big screen TV and surround sound system, So we where fairly new to all this stuff. I needed one of these cables to run sound from our dish network box to our receiver. I searched around for a good deal and this was the best! I have had no trouble with the cable staying plugged in like some of the other reviewers have had. I would recommend these cables to any one that needs a Digital Audio Optical Cable!

I read that other people were having trouble with these cables staying connected, but I have not had that problem. When they are pushed in correctly, they lock in place. I have used them on my stereo, TV and WDTV player. They work great. You can't beat the price.

I was hoping to give at least a good review about customer service, but I could not. I give accurate product reviews on products purchased on Amazon and 98% of the time they are good. The 6' DIGITAL AUDIO OPTICAL FIBER OPTIC TOSLINK CABLE by DVI Gear are of poor quality. 2 out of 3 of the 6ft audio optical cables would not stay connected to the following: Directv HD dvr receiver, Sony receiver, and LG blueray player. Enough pressure was given so that if they were to seat, they should have. Regarding the seller : BUYER BEWARE ... EVEN ON DEFECTS, THE COMPANY REQUIRES THE BUYER TO PAY RETURN SHIPPING COSTS - SO THIS COST IS APPROXIMATELY EQUAL TO THE COMPLETE COST OF BUYING THIS PRODUCT. I told the company this is not good policy and then gave them one more chance to agree to re-imburse charges on defects, but they declined to do so even though they were told they would receive feedback accordingly. IF I WOULD HAVE READ THIS REVIEW PRIOR TO BUYING, I PROBABLY WOULD HAVE SELECTED THE NEXT MORE EXPENSIVE COMPANY THAT SOLD THESE CABLES.
