Clear picks you up at the full-bodied advertising first to the head - Gold plated connectors for an optical cable ?? Interference? well ... BUT: The cable is very low, the plug act really very high quality and also the textile jacket is processed opaque and clean. The connectors are incidentally very firmly in the socket - so no problems should be expected that the plug dissolves by itself.
Conclusion: Since the transmission is digital anyway, it's not worth it to invest more money, processing etc suits -> 5 Stars!
