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

I used this AudioQuest Cinnamon optical cable when I upgraded most of my system and changed from surround sound back to just stereo. I replaced a "generic" optical cable I'd been using with the Integra surround receiver (now replaced also) and the difference in sound quality was nothing short of unbelievable. The sound is much clearer overall, and I can hear instruments and even some dialogue that didn't make it through the old cable. An added bonus is that when watching a DVD movie dialogue now matches the actors lip movements perfectly. This cable is definitely worth the price.

Top notch quality. Audioquest has the best cables for AV. I can hear the difference compared to my previous cable, the adapter is a nice addition for me because my TV (A95L) doesn't have an optical audio port. Very flexible and fits as no one.

Quality cable .Thank you

Excellent product. These Toslink cables are very skinny or small in diameter compared to RCA, XLR or other cables you have used in the past. AudioQuest is very proud of their products and you will discover that when you try to buy one of any length greatet than a meter (3 feet). MOST IMPORTANT NOTE!! Make sure you remove the little plastic cap covers on each end of cable before inserting into the optical output jack on your preamp, amp or other source. Also the connectors are keyed so pay attention to how it plugs in. My connection points for instance have the flat part of connector facing down; yours might be different. As far as sound? My system sounds great! Is that a result of this cable? Don't know, but I have never had an issue with AudioQuest products. Peace of mind never comes cheap!

Anything AQ you know will be good. I bought a pair but had to return one because in the process of installing and reinstalling connectivity I damaged the hinge door of the Toslink’s port. The sound is pristine and transparent. Bass notes are rendered with impact and realism. They say Toslink connectivity is not as good as Coax and USB but these cables easily can challenge that notion.

All I can say is Wow! I know there is better high end cables than the Cinnamon series and maybe cheaper. But with that said the this cable significantly improved the fidelity of my headphone and home theater sound. I went from your baseline monster toslink to the AudioQuest Cinnamon. In my personal experience I always notice a huge difference when upgrading an optical audio cable more so than coaxial or hdmi. Don't get me wrong use the best you can afford for your level of equipment. It's just that the little tiny thin as heck digital optical cable that either comes with equipment or is the cheap cable readily available is so bad. It's been around since the 90's or earlier. This is the first time I went up to the cinnamon line for my digital optical cable...usually went with the forest. I wanted the nicer braided cable this time. Well worth every penny. If I had some higher end equipment I would have gone to the vodka or diamond series but $300 headphones sound amazing as is. Sorry for the long winded review. Cheers

The silver cable is the optical cable I was using. It worked great but when I saw the Cinnamon on sale, it was hard to say no to. The ends are great, they lock in well, I had no problem routing them in the car, but as noted above, they don’t have the braided outer jacket. It makes me question their authenticity. They do look like the Forest cable, so they may be, but they are definitely not the newest version and that should be made clear in the product description.

I took a gamble and purchased this, not knowing if it would truly make an audible difference. I wanted to replace my older Monster optical cable and get the best sound possible from my 2017 Vizio 5.1 sound bar system and my AppleTV. My Samsung TV does not support HDMI Arc. My Monster cable would fall out too easily and didn't seem to have a solid connection. I'd had it for years. This AudioQuest cable definitely had a solid grip on the optical ports. I have to say I could notice a difference. It sounded fuller/wider with slightly more bass. I can tell it made a difference because I had to turn down my subwoofer one notch. This cable is quite short so I recommend measuring before ordering. Fortunately, the ports for my TV and sound bar are both on the same side. I've recently purchased Audioquest Golden Gate cables for my turntable as well. I've definitely determined that higher end cables do have an effect on improving sound quality.

I have the forest version which is good,but this takes it to another level. Forget cheaper cables,spend the money

Ho usato questo cavo per collegare TV al mio amplificatore, essendo audiofilo posseggo un discreto impianto più votato all' ascolto audio che Home cinema, ma il risultato con la Tv è sorprendente. Forse un po' caro ma ho tutti cavi Audioquest e mi trovo molto bene, le differenze si vedono e si sentono.

Très bonne qualite

Es el tercer cable AudioQuest que compro y sinceramente no podría volver a cables genéricos. Lo necesitaba ya que mi reproductor de CD conectado directamente al DAC generaba sibilancia en los agudos. Este cable lo solucionó de inmediato. Ahora los agudos son suaves y los bajos más definidos. Los que dicen que los cables no hacen diferencia en el sistema de audio, más bien deberían reconsiderar cambiar de altavoces. El cambio es notorio, en cuando a dinámica, espacio sonoro, calidad de bajos, medio y altos, transparencia y definición de sonido. Cable pequeño, poco notorio pero de muy alta calidad. Me encanta, seguiré comprando cables AudioQuest.

Fabricación y buena calidad
