BlueRigger Digital Optical Audio Toslink Cable (6FT, Fiber Optic Cord, 24K Gold-Plated) - Compatible with Home Theatre, Sound Bar, TV, Xbox, PlayStation PS4

This is a great buy! I was in need of a new one that also needed to be longer and and this worked out great and the price was also good.

Worked as described. Happy with this cable.

The cable came early which was good. It was exactly what I wanted for my tv. Great company to order from.

Problem:Could not hear audio from digital TV's streaming apps on headphones through analog amp.Why: Husband could not stand to hear TV’s audio when I was watching TV or streaming youtube videos on our Samsung HDTV while he was in adjacent room surfing Facebook. Although he is deaf, he does ‘not like to wear’ his headphones or plug them into his laptop computer.Why not just upgrade to digital headphones? 1) we did not want to invest in digital headphones. 2) I want to control Mute function and Volume from TV's remote control.Goal:Listen to streaming apps on analog headphones PLUS control audio volume PLUS mute sound using TV’s remote control.First fix:1) Connect new smart TV audio to old analog amp. 2) connect my analog headphones to old analog amp and adjust TV volume to my preferred volume - using cables from our stash. Of course, that did not work.So I did a LOT of online research.Turns out that we needed to buy ANOTHER new device to convert the smart TV’s digital output to analog for the amp’s input. Therefore, I bought the inexpensive Prozor DAC digital-to analog converter box here on amazon. www.amazon.com/dp/B00KNNSKV0?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_detailsThe Prozor’s comments indicated that it works well – but the included audio cable resulted in static. So I researched and in the same order, I also bought this Bluerigger cable. After hubby messed around with all the spaghetti cables behind our tv, this setup works well, so far.Only one hiccup.Seems like I can NOT control the TV audio volume or mute from the TV’s remote control when streaming apps [Youtube, Netflix, Prime Video, etc.]. I prefer to MUTE sound during ads – I hate commercials...So I’m still trying to figure that out... I’m doing a few more tests, then maybe reconfigure the spaghetti or buy a new gizmo/gadget.Our current A/V components:- New-ish HD TV [Samsung] with streaming apps included and Optical jack - but no Headphones jack!- New analog headphones - with hybrid, double ended cable [OneOdio – LOVE them!].- Ancient analog amplifier - with headphones jack PLUS controls for power, volume, bass, etc.- Ancient analog VCR player (yes – we still watch VHS tapes sometimes).- Brand-New combo BluRay/DVD/CD player. [wow - what a great picture!]- Newish TV converter box [yes - we still watch network TV!]- Brand-New DAC converter box [Prozor].- THis BlueRigger cable plus a Gazillion other cables to connect all this mess.Solution:If I can’t fix volume with this setup, I’ll have to WALK over to the amp and turn the volume knob. LOL.P.S. I was bandleader and lead singer for my own band in the dark ages. So I do know a tad about connecting audio systems. Hubby is experienced too with A/V systems. But it’s still a headache making all this stuff talk to each other...P.P.S. In another location, our main audio system components are:- Hi-Fi stereo Receiver / amp / radio- 4 desktop speakers- Turntable Record player [yes – we still enjoy vinyl!] + adapters for 45rpm records.- Cassette player [yes – we still enjoy cassette tapes, too!]- CD player- A million cables connecting this other mess. LOL

This cable worked great. It's just what I needed to put my Bose sound bar above my bed. I was a bit worried that the cable would be to long and I would lose quality. No way it works like a charm.

This cable worked perfectly to replace my old cable that was no longer working. It's a nice thick cable, seems durable enough to hold up over time, and sends a speedy signal for crisp picture and sound quality. Would buy again.

Works great to bring audio from my TV to my amp!!

Very Good
