To that end, I purchased this in 2015 and have been using it since. It connects my older MacBook (2016 and newer no longer have optical, sadly, and you’ll be restricted to utilizing a USB port for audio) to my DAC. For those with optical available to them, this is the superior solution because it does not take up an extra USB slot.
It has worked perfectly all these years. The cable is high quality and completely reliable. It’s an invaluable part of my system and I continue to purchase only DACs that support optical, which is thankfully the vast majority of them.
JUST A FINAL THOUGHT: If you are hearing some sort of huge audiophile-golden-ear difference in sound quality between this and some other Toslink cable, there may be a subtle malfunction in your equipment but you're probably hallucinating. It's OK to hallucinate, you can even make a hobby of it, but this cable will yield all the sonic performance the program being transmitted over it affords and further improvements in optical cabling are only heard in your imagination and felt in your checkbook. This KabelDirekt seems the sit at a sweet spot in price/quality, one that yields 99.999% of the audio capability inherent in digital audio sent over Toslink.
Within a month or so the cable stopped working and my receiver kept saying no signal. Swapped the cable with a reputable brand optical cable and all is well. I do not recommend this cable.
