KabelDirekt – Optical Audio Cable – 10ft Digital Optical Cable for soundbars, Fiber Optic Lead (Digital S/PDIF Cable, Stereo Systems/amplifiers/amps, Home Cinema, Xbox One/PS4)

These Optical Audio Cables look to be a premium quality product and so far have performed well in my entertainment system. The cable is relatively thick compared to other cables I have used, but it is remarkably flexible despite how thick it is. The connectors are well made and fit securely into the ports on my TV and preamplifier and the signal quality has been very good with no problems so far. Given the high quality construction and materials I expect the cable to hold up well, and the price for such a premium cable is hard to beet.

It works as its intended, but didn’t work with my setup on my tv

This optical audio cable does exactly what it’s supposed to do, and it does it well. The build quality feels solid right out of the box, with snug connectors that click securely into place and don’t feel loose or cheap. Setup was plug-and-play — no configuration, no troubleshooting, just instant audio. The signal is clean and consistent with no dropouts, static, or weird sync issues. I’m using it between my TV and sound system, and the audio comes through clear and stable every time. The length is accurate, the cable is flexible enough to route easily, and the connectors are well protected. It’s also nice that it doesn’t feel overly stiff or fragile, which is something I’ve run into with cheaper optical cables in the past. If you’re looking for a reliable optical cable that simply works and doesn’t introduce problems into your setup, this is an easy recommendation. Sometimes boring reliability is exactly what you want — and this cable delivers.

The cable worked very well, it performs as stated with perfect picture and sound cared to my 20 year old receiver from my new Smart TV.

I plugged this KabelDirekt TOSLINK cable in expecting “good audio.” What I got was “crystal-clear S/PDIF commandments” delivered over light beams with German precision. 🔊 The Good Stuff: • Interference? What interference? Because it’s fiber-optic, there’s zero risk of radio or electrical interference messing with your audio magic. Think: audio transmission in utter peace. • Tough connectors. With gold-plated heads and metal sleeves, it’s built for repeated plugging—and resists corrosion like a champ. • Multi‑channel ready. Supports uncompressed PCM, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS‑HD, LPCM, 5.1 and 7.1 surround sound—everything your setup needs. • Quality tested. Feels durable and well-made, not like those flimsy cords that feel like they’ll snap if you breathe too hard on them. • Worked perfectly to connect my Bose soundbar to my Samsung TV. No configuration hassle—just plug and play, and the audio instantly leveled up. 💸 The “Wait, Is That Loose?” Stuff: • Fit can feel a little loose. It doesn’t click in with that super-snug “lock-in” feel—it’s secure, just not as reassuring as you’d expect. • Cable isn’t ultra-thin. It’s not bulky by any means, but if you’re dealing with tight corners or wall-mounted setups, just keep the thickness in mind. ⸻ ✅ Verdict: If you want clean, interference-free digital audio connecting your TV, PlayStation/Xbox, soundbar, or Hi‑Fi setup without fuss, the KabelDirekt TOSLINK Cable is a solid bet. It’s designed to last, offers impressive surround format support, and keeps your audio crisp and pure—though don’t expect locking clicks or feather-thin cable vibes. Used it to hook up my Bose soundbar to my Samsung TV and it worked like a charm. TL;DR: Great build, no interference, solid performance. Your soundbar will thank you—if it could talk.

Offering a secure connection compared to cheaper alternatives. The 6ft length is ideal for most setups, providing flexibility without excess cable clutter. It is a durable, high-performance, and reliable choice for premium audio experiences that delivers lossless, high-fidelity PCM, Dolby Digital, and DTS 5.1/7.1 audio without electrical interference.

Kabel Direkt TOSLINK- Optical Audio Cable, 3 ft. Works even better than an optical cable that came with a high end sound bar we bought, and tha's the opinion of four adults with two identical sound bars. Also better than HDMI cable.

I needed a cable that was longer after mounting my TV and soundbar. Honestly wasn’t looking for much but this cable delivered. The price was right and it seems well made, but it also seems to deliver better sound quality without being a super thick cable. Great item.
