Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Belkin AV20000-06 PureAV Digital Optical Cable (6 feet)Customer Review: Bought 1 and liked it, bought a 2nd and not so much. Summary: 3 Stars
Works great, sound seems no different than other premium brand optical cables that I or anyone else can hear the difference between. I bought the 1st one when adding additional componets to my home theater setup. It works great/same as compared to my more expensive Monster branded optical cable. I also liked how the end caps were strapped on vs. the Monster cable which wasn't & I have lost 1 of their caps already.
Well, I decided to buy a 2nd cable when I decided to hook my computer rig into my system. That's when I realized the cables fall out super easy without much effort. The ends didn't snap in, nor did they feel snug. I thought maybe one of my ends were bad, but both are the same when switching it around. I decided to read the other reviews and realized that other people have had the same issue. The first cable was fine, so just poor QA at Belkin on this and others, maybe? IDK. Either way not acceptable when using on things you may move around or need access to. I swapped the cables around for my stationery componets, but shouldn't have had to do this.
If your looking to save a few bucks, have stationery items, and design & style(looks) matter then I would recommmend this cable.
If you plan on moving things around for occasional dusting or are planning to use for a computer rig that you fiddle around with then I can't recommend this product based on my experiences with it.
Other Thoughts: If they skimped out on QA for the end moldings, then maybe their QA isn't that great when it comes to testing the polishing for the ends of the fiber. 5 Stars for the 1st cable, but 1 star for the 2nd cable.
