Excellent cable - eliminates poor connections by having converters. Using it as cable between my computer and my stereo.

If you're like me, you are probably wondering if these little cables are actually worth the money. I was using cheap thin wired connections before, and my receiver would have LOTS of background noise and buzzing, so I thought I'd go ahead and give these things a shot. Afterall, I listen to MP3's all the time on my computer through my high end receiver. I'll tell you what, these things work great, and are worth the extra money. Now keep in mind, I'm an audiophile who is very picky about sounds. So for the casual listener who doesn't mind occasional background hissing or lack of crystal clear sound transfer from your computer to your receiver, you might be able to find a cheaper connection. But once again, I think the extra $$ is well worth it and I HIGHLY recomend these. Your only concern here is an economical one. As far as the product is concerned, these things are top notch.

Really simple to set up, and the sound is great. I have an IBM T20 laptop computer. The internal speakers for a laptop are pretty good, but for listening to high fidelity audio, they just don't make the grade. I also have Harman/Kardon computer speakers; they're better than the laptop's internal speakers, but still nowhere near the rich sound you get from your hifi.
Then I connected the 10ft Monster Cable from my laptop to my Yamaha Amp. Wow! I have all my CDs ripped as MP3s on my laptop - from now on, this is how I will be listening to my music. The sound is superb - a different league from what you're used to from a laptop/computer. Maybe it's my great Amp, maybe it's my great laptop, but the sound is rich and clear. This cable was worth every penny.

I used this cable to connect my ipod to the connection in my trunk. I was getting a lot of interference with some of my old cables. It works great now. The problems are as follows:

- the cable isn't quite long enough even for a small car
- the cable is very stiff so it won't bend well. If you are hooking it up to an ipod it will make your ipod stay in a specific position
- the end of the cable is big. I wanted to use this for my sirius radio but it wouldn't fit because the end is big

I ended up getting an extension cable that would address these issues.

Monster has always had the reputation to being the best in quality for their products... When you think of wires, you cannot help think of Monster Cable... I used this cable to connect my carputer to my factory head unit... Ran up the middle of the car, grouped with a VGA cable and multiple USB cables, there is no feedback at all.. i was worried the VGA feed may leak into this cable but monster did not let me down.. I highly recommend this product... but as others on here have stated.. little pricey... in the end 'you get what you pay for!'
