Title: How are these optical cables?
Post by: learning_towalk on January 16, 2005, 02:05:52 AM

Parts express was out of the Dayton 1.5' opticals....so I ordered two of these they are "optiglow toslink cables" that actually light up to signify that you are getting a proper signal....anybody tried these? I guess if I don't like em, I'll just wait for parts express to get more of the 1.5's in

here's a pic
