Audioquest Optilink-A
For
- Looks good and has flexible connectivity
Against
- Lacking in scale, substance and space
AudioQuest makes a habit of presenting presentable cables and this Optilink-A is no exception, the black PVC jacket – ooh err missus – looking smart and providing good flexibility when it comes to connecting.
Sonically it's a little less impressive, even when the meagre price is taken in to account. If you're going to splash out the best part of £20, we'd like a sound with a little more scale and space, and for the bottom frequencies to be tighter.
Lots of style but lacking substance.
