Overview
Our take on the AudioQuest Cinnamon OptiLink by Crutchfield's Steve Kindig
If you're wondering how to get a digital audio signal from your computer's mini-optical output to the full-sized Toslink optical input on your A/V receiver or DAC, AudioQuest's Cinnamon Toslink-to-mini-optical cable is a high-quality solution. This cable is a great choice for use with the 3.5mm dual-purpose headphone jack found on MacBook® and iMac® models. The core of the Cinnamon is a finely polished, low-distortion polymer fiber conductor that minimizes signal loss and jitter (time-based distortion).
Product Highlights:
- length: 3 meter (10 ft.)
- low-jitter design
- finely-polished polymer fiber conductor
- full-size Toslink connector on one end, 3.5mm mini-optical connector on the other end
- warranty: 5 years
- Our 60-day money-back guarantee
What's in the Box:
- 10' (3m) Optical digital cable (terminated by Toslink connector on one end and mini-optical on other end)
I use this between my tv and B&W A7. I think I have pretty discerning ear, and have so far been nothing but happy with the sound quality this provides.

Why did you buy this?
Positive experience with Audioquest cables [ DavidEFLube Jul 30, 2017 ]
have the forest wanted to see if the cinnamon was better [ Jeffrey Aug 10, 2016 ]
Returned AQ 703CIUSB5 on order 42584918 as it wasn't the correct cable for my application. The AQ Optilink is the correct cable. I've had good results from AQ cables before. [ John M. Apr 18, 2016 ]
1 question already asked
Yamaha stereo receivers can have a widely different set of audio inputs. Because of this, the only way to know if this cable can work is to call an advisor on 1-800-324-9695 to discuss your TV, Yamaha receiver, and content you view on the TV to figure out which cable will work.
