AudioQuest 1.5m Forest Optical Toslink Fiber-Optic Cable + Mini-Adaptor

These cables were shipped quickly and arrived in good condition. I have always been impressed by the consistently good sound I get from AudioQuest cables, and the Forest and Evergreen series provide this consistency throughout my system at an affordable price point.

I’ll say it again, Audioquest gear is unsurpassed in its use of quality materials and workmanship. Buy it once and forget it with the confidence of knowing this product is Not the weak link in your system.

As all Audio Quest cables the quality is excellent. I am using this to connect my TV to my DAC, sound is excellent. This is not the highest grade cable out there buy for TV audio it suits the job in my opinion. No the Cheapest cable out there, but you get the quality you pay for.

Very very good worth the money

Honestly a couple of months ago I didn't know a toslink cable from a cableknit sweater. My rapid research determined their use and their second sister status to the other S/PDIF cable-coaxial. I was using a nice coaxial cable for linking a Squeezebox Touch to an external DAC having excellent results. One day curiosity got the best of me and I was wondering what my CD player would sound like through the external DAC. The DAC has one each coaxial, optical (toslink), and USB inputs. So I ordered this modest optical cable for a second input. Supposedly polymer optical cable is inferior to real glass toslink and optical cable is inferior to coaxial. When this entry-level (polymer) Audioquest Forest cable arrived I swapped the coaxial for the CD player hookup and installed the toslink between the DAC and the Squeezebox Touch. The results are every bit as good sounding as before with the coaxial. Two conclusions: This "audiophile" hobby can be maddening (I'm listening to wires) trying to differentiate very minute changes and secondly, the more expensive choices can often be more an ego boost than a genuine improvement. One is not shortchanging their equipment with the AQ Forest.

Picked this cable up after replacing my entire system with the Tower analog cables offered by Audioquest. I had never used any of their digital cables, so this is my first and it's replacing the higher-end Monoprice cable I was using before. I should note that the product I received is not the one pictured here. The cable I received was very thin and had a green/black braided jacket that seemed to be made of nylon. I wasn't sure if I accidentally got sent a higher-end product but the box still said Forest, so I contacted Audioquest to make sure there were no issues. They confirmed that they recently revamped the optical cables to make them a bit thinner and easier to run behind A/V equipment. I'm unable to upload any pics here, it must be because I'm posting this on mobile, but I think the new design is much more aesthetically pleasing than the cable pictured. It has the same braided jacket style that the higher-end cables have. It's a digital cable, so obviously the sound will be fine and I'm very happy with the product. I do wish they would update the product image here, so people know what they're getting, though.

I use this Audioquest optical cable to connect my WiiM Pro to one of my DACs and stereo. Fine sound quality, and as is the case with all Toslink connections, there’s no need to worry about the cable picking up electromagnetic hum if you have a lot of cable-vomit behind your audio gear and video gear.

Lets be honest, if you're here you're at least somewhat of an audiophile. I used this from my bluetooth receiver to my bifrost 2/64 DAC. Did music have more body? More warmth? More detail? Was the midrange elevated? Was the treble suppressed? None of that happened, it just sounds the same. In the end it just works, and I trust it will continue to work. But that's what I was expecting, so that's just fine by me. TLDR; Works unexceptionally. Nothing wrong with it, and as expected. 5*s.

Für den TV Ton, reicht dieses Kabel völlig aus. Klanglich, macht es einen Unterschied zu einem billigeren Kabel (z.B. von SKW). Ich kann es jedem empfehlen, der Wert auf guten TV Ton legt.

Good product.Both the interfaces deserve attention!
