Kimber Kable OPT 1 Toslink Fiber Optic Digital Cable - 2.0 Meter

Affordable Excellence in a Fiber Optic Digital Cable

With so much emphasis on other types of digital cables, especially USB and eARC, it's easy to forget the importance of Toslink cables in AV systems. They are an included connection on most soundbars and TVs, and they also continued to be offered on amps, receivers, DACs, disc players, and streamers.

If you use the optical connection on a piece of audio or video gear, make sure it is the equal of your components and will deliver the level of performance you've been looking for.

Better Overall Performance

Kimber Kable OPT1 Toslink fiber optic digital cable can give you better overall performance than budget cable. Benefits include greater resolution, a wider soundstage, and better bass impact. Despite the high quality of OPT 1, Kimber keeps the price affordable, allowing you to use it throughout your system.

Medical-Grade Light-Conducting Fiber

The medical-grade light-conducting fiber that Kimber uses in OPT1 has excellent light transfer characteristics and is the result of extensive research. Unlike glass, it will not microscopically fracture when flexed. The fiber is encapsulated in a heat-inhibiting thermal barrier for performance consistency, especially during extend hours of use. A mechanical damping outer barrier is also applied to further protect the cable from damage.

The cable ends are cold-polished to reduce light reflections for maximum signal integrity. Another big plus is that each OPT1 cable is individually hand-finished, ensuring quality and performance.

Full, Relaxed, and Transparent Sounding

With such excellent light transfer characteristics, the result is a sound which is full, relaxed, and transparent. The end result is that OPT1 will provide years of consistent performance at a cost-effective price.

"I cannot recommend Kimber any higher," raves OPT1 user Jason at audioreview.com. "Use Kimber in every connection you can, and you won't go wrong. Five stars all the way."

OPT1 user James also posts an enthusiastic comment at audioreview.com, "Changing to the Kimber has cleaned up the midrange and made treble less exposed. It is preferable (in my system) to an electrical connection."
