Glass Master Toslink by DH Labs, Inc.

After 18 months of work, the DH Labs GLASS MASTER Toslink is in the final stages of production. Sourcing/Manufacturing glass fiber with the necessary bend radius was one of our biggest challenges in 25 years in this business. Unknown to most, bending the true glass fibers that are being used by other manufacturers in our industry can cause them to fracture and compromise the performance of the cable. The proprietary DH Labs GLASS MASTER Toslink will avoid this issue and set the new standard for performance.

Multifiber Glass Toslink sounds great between my PC and DAC, besting all other Toslink cables I have tried by a wide margin, it also does not have to be expensive.

I purchased a 280 fiber 12' long glass cable from HDTVHookup for $29, here is the site, give it a try, I think you will be impressed!

I know this is an old thread but Im torn because I just bought an Audioengine B1 Bluettoth receiver with Optical out being the only digital output. My integrated amp can take both coaxial and optical.
Injust dont know if I should spend $200 on a DH Labs Glass Master optical cable or just start fresh and buy a source with Coaxial out.

Thank you all

The Glass Master can usually be found 15 to 20% off of list price. I have the Glass Master and believe it is worth having a great Optical Cable (as well as one on hand). Given your application/pairing, I understand your hesitation.

Lifatec Toslink (glass) is also a nice option. I have 2 of them and have used them for several years. Terrific quality.
