ET-1 Optical Cable

For crystal-clear audio on a tight budget, the PipeLine ET-1 Optical Cable does the trick. This digital audio cable delivers undistorted sound through a Toslink connection, and dramatically reduces errors in timing and improving the dynamic contrast. Information is passed from the source to the speaker without error, using the materials known and loved from the Quest group.

PipeLine ET-1 Optical Features:

Connect your digital audio components with a high quality cable for a noticeable sound difference
Witness the beauty of clear and dynamic music from your favorite tracks
These cables are available in 6 feet and 15 feet options, for whatever your systems need

Product Information

A digital-audio cable, such as Toslink ET-1, can be the single most important cable in your system since all the channels depend on this one cable to deliver undistorted sound. Imperfections in typical optical fiber cause a “scattering” of the light information: Within each fiber, the optical light signal takes many different paths of various different lengths, causing a misinterpretation of the digital data and creating sound that is harsh and unfocused. The special polymer fiber and finely polished optical interface used in PipeLine Toslink ET-1 dramatically reduces timing errors, providing greater clarity and dynamic contrast.

Optical (Toslink): Corruption of timing information is the source of distortion in a Optical cable. Imperfections in the optical fiber scatter the light. The light then takes many different paths with each path having a slightly different length, causing misinterpretation of the digital data. The superior fiber and finely polished optical interface of PipeLine Optical cable minimizes these problems.

Directions: Remove the plastic protectors on each end of Optical ET-1 and on the Optical inputs of your associated gear. Do not touch the ends of Optical ET-1. Insert the connectors; they are “keyed” and only fit one way.
