I finally decided to go optical with my Playstation 3 and my media/surround system. First I looked at Monster cables Monster Cable Fiber Optic Digital Audio Cable for PlayStation 3 (10 Feet) , but in my Amazon search I found the Intec Playstation 3 Optical Cable which at the time of my search (and this writing) cost less than the Monster cable.
So I went with Intec. After the Intec Optical cable arrived at my house I couldn't wait to hook it up. I immediately opened the package, disconnected the digital coax cable that I was currently using, and I attempted to connect the Intec Optical Cable...but it wouldn't fit into the input/outputs on my device or on my receiver. Humph!? What the heck? This should just fit, right? Plug and play, no? Why the...? Maybe a little pressure....ummmph...nope. Oh, man!
Am I crazy or are these things really not fitting? I don't want to damage my devices (or the cables). I read the directions/literature from front to back. Nothing. What now? Maybe I call Intec. Yup. That's what I'm gonna do, as silly as it sounds to have to call tech support to install a cable.
I explained my dilemma to a very nice gentleman at Intec who was completely baffled as to why they wouldn't fit. "Are you inserting the cable flat-top up/half circle down?" he asked. "Indeed," I replied. He then suggested that I send him the cable, and he'd send me a new one. Very kind, but that process would take a lot longer than I wanted to wait.
So off to the high end electronic store with my Intec cable I went. If they couldn't tell what was wrong with the Intec or what I was doing wrong, I'd just buy an optical cable from them.
A very nice fellow at the retailer greeted me and said, "Let's have a look at the Intec." I gave it to him. He put a pair of spectacles on, looked at one end of the cable and removed a protective cap from the small gold recptacle on one end and repeated on the other and then he looked at me with a smile that said, "there-you-go-dummy" .
Crikey. I didn't remove the friggin caps? How was I supposed to know those were caps?!? They looked like...little...optical cable...thingamajiggers. Oy.
So the guy at Intec gave me way too much credit, assumed I was smart enough to take the caps off, and he never asked that one key question: Did you remove the caps?
The Intec Optical Cable ultimately works just great...that is if you remove the protective caps. And it works great not only on my Playstation 3, but also from my cable box to my receiver.
One star off for not catering to a dunce like me and saying somewhere in the directions...like first thing...remove the protective caps. Sheesh.
P.S. - Don't forget to change the setting for the input on your receiver from its current to optical.
