GRIFFIN TECHNOLOGY Xpress Digital Audio Cable for Airport Express Review

GRIFFIN TECHNOLOGY Xpress Digital Audio Cable for Airport Express
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I wanted an optical cable to connect my MacBook to my home theater receiver, and this works just fine. I had no trouble with connecting it to my MacBook or receiver. The cable is a good length and is plenty flexible. I like it because it's cheaper than other cables that I've looked at, it comes with two mini-Toslink adapters, and it can be used as a regular Toslink cable by simply not putting on the mini-Toslink adapters.
I gave it four stars because there was a cut across part of the sheath when I took it out of the package, so I wasn't very impressed with the quality control. Luckily, the cut wasn't deep enough to penetrate the sheath into the optical fiber. Overall, I think that it's a good choice.

Much cheaper than the one Apple makes and it works great. A dock would be nice but, this is 1/4 of the cost and it works fine.

These are pretty good cables. No noticable line noise from the VCR to the tv. I was able to get them for less than $10 delivered, so they were a great deal.

Inferior cables equal inferior sound and picture.There are several different types of cable that can deliver audio/video from your VCR or camcorder to your TV. The RF coaxial cable people commonly use delivers second-rate performance. It carries video and audio signals together, which is modulated to the same high frequencies used by TV stations when they transmit. This process can increase the amount of interference your system picks up, resulting in inferior quality.And, if you're only using RF cables to connect your VCR to your TV, you're only getting mono sound when you watch tapes.Experience the Monster Standard difference.With Monster Standard A/V kit, you'll experience stereo sound when you watch video tapes, because you're using separate audio and video cables to carry each signal. Unlike ordinary RF cables, which aren't designed for optimum A/V performance, Monster Standard audio and video cables feature special low-loss construction with a dual foil and braided copper shield to reject interference that can cause annoying problems including ghosting or a snowy picture. 24k gold contact RCA connectors resist corrosion and ensure maximum signal transfer. A low density structured foam dielectric is used for low-loss video signal transfer.Connect your components with Monster Standard interconnect cables for the sharpest, most lifelike video picture and natural sound reproduction.Don't compromise your A/V system's performance.For the best possible picture and sound when you're on a budget, Monster Standard audio and video cables offer the highest manufacturing quality at a very affordable price.

Do not spend more than few bucks for a optical audio cable. Anyone trying to convince you their beast, monster or goliath cable will provide you better audio quality is lying to you - digital cables either work or don't work at all.

I was suprised that this item was as expensive as it was. However, I decided to buy it because a bad connection can make high-quality components sound bad. I was very impressed with this cable. The gold-plated male connector makes a solid connection to the computer input. The wires are massive and the RCA-stereo connectors are well-shielded, gold-plated and sturdy. This was a very good investment. I recommend it for anyone trying to connect a tape player or other device to their computer. It's a must have for people burning CD's of the LP or tape collection.

The connections arent very good, they wont stay in the optic jacks for very long, maybe i got a bad one. I ordered 2 one of them has a bit better connection than the other, but they are still not that great, what do you expect for 2-3 bucks though right. Pony up the dough for one that is a bit more $ around the 8-10 range, Mediabridge makes some awesome cables, thats the way i go these days.

RCA Extension Cord 10 ft. Review

RCA Extension Cord 10 ft.
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I ordered 6 of these yesterday...YESTERDAY! And they already came today. Once again Amazon is amazing (actually this ships from Parts Express, but close enough).
I hooked these up to my $50 logitech X-530 5.1 Speaker system and they work great. I hooked up 4 in a row to one speaker and did several tests by ear, and honestly I can not tell a difference at all. They may be a generic brand but for cheaper sound systems it doesn't matter. Only when you start spending over $250 will you ever need to get better sound cables, and even than you may only get about a 20% sound increase for a $50 cable (I've had this happen before).
Remember though that if your figuring to wall mount speakers your going to need more cord length than you think. In my case I should have ordered a couple more cords. I only factored in the length through the ceiling and forgot to factor in the cord coming from back of the receiver (which happens to be the subwoofer) and going up to the ceiling.
The only negative thing I can think of is that they might pull apart from eachother a little easily if they are in the ceiling and someone yanks on one side a bit. For that reason once I connect mine I'll probably glue them in place.
Overall, You can't beat the price. Best Buy's cheapest is $16 for a 12' cord!

Belkin Stereo Cable for iPhone Review

I have a surround sound set up for my HD television. To be able to listen to my tunes through the surround sound speakers is amazing! If you have a receiver, you can pump up the volume, and hear the nuance of the music much clearer and sharper than with plain old ear buds. Your entire body can feel the bass rather than just your ears. The design of the product is attractive and durable, a perfect compliment to the iphone. I couldn't be happier with this simple yet valuable product.

Monster Standard THX-Certified Subwoofer Interconnect Cable (16 Ft) Review

I bought this to replace the cheap cable that came with my 140W sub-woofer. Yes, it made a difference, especially when I crank the volume. I used "Iron Man" the seen with the Jericho bomb exploding, and felt like my clothes was flapping from the sonic boom as opposed to a loud sound with the original cable. The price from Amazon was absolutely unbelievable! Just look at BestBuy and them come back to Amazon to make your purchase!

Home Theatre Picture and Sound Keeps Getting BetterDVD and Satellite Recievers use high preformance connections like S-Video, Component Video, and Dolby Digital Surround Audio. Using high quality connections is more important than ever, to get the most out of these technologies.That's why THX, the industry leader in sound quality certification for movie theatres (you've probably seen the famous THX logo in movie theatres and on DVDs), collaborated together with Monster Cable, to create connection standards sepcifically for home theatre.Today's Home Theatre Components Need Higher Quality ConnectionsThe cables that come in the box don't meet Monster THX standards. Some of the connections you need don't even come in the box, including S-Video, Component Video, and Digital Audio for Surround Sound.Introducing the Monster Standard Line of Monster THX-Certified CablesAlthough Monster Standard THX cable doesn't feature many of the advanced technologies found in our higher preformance product lines, it still packs plenty of Monsterous features: higher quality gold tip connections, user-friendly features like color-coded connectors & ID labels for easy, error-free hookup, plus increased power handling of speaker cables to deliver the full dynamic range of explosions and crashes found in today's movies. And dig the stylish, futuristic connector design inspired by Lucasfilm's Star Wars epics.

12 FT Digital Audio Optical TOSLink Cable Optic 12ft Review

12 FT Digital Audio Optical TOSLink Cable Optic 12ft
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
While this cable will indeed provide a path for photons to move as with any other optical cable, the connectors are very poorly made. I'm guessing that they don't meet the mechanical specs for toslink, as they don't hold themselves in the jacks as they are supposed to. I literally had to use tape on one of the connectors to keep it from falling out of the port under no more pressure than its own weight. Correctly designed toslink cables stay in the same jack just fine.
Conclusion: Don't spend $100 on an optical cable (since they all perform exactly the same as far as data is concerned,) but do get one with good connectors (which can be had at reasonable prices, but apparently not this low.) Of course, for any form of digital data, whether electronic (HDMI, DVI, etc.) or optical (toslink, fibrechannel, etc.,) there is no difference in signal quality as long as the data actually gets to the other end, so a medium-cheap cable will perform *exactly* the same as an expensive "high-end" cable, unless you are in an environment with an incredibly high amount of electromagnetic noise (at which point you shouldn't have your TV or receiver [or yourself] there anyway.)

Belkin PureAV AV20500-15 15-Foot Subwoofer Audio Cable Review

Belkin PureAV AV20500-15 15-Foot Subwoofer Audio Cable
Average Reviews:

Just bought this cable from Amazon and received it in two days! I ordered a Subwoofer for my AV system from Amazon and then realized I needed a cable. I shopped around the local big box store thinking their prices and selection would be similar to Amazon, but I was wrong. I didn't think the cables they offered were worth the money. Some of the Monster cables were over $40, and the cheapo quality ones were still over $20, and looked like they wouldn't sound very good. So I checked out Amazon and found this 15 foot cable by Belkin. It looked about the same quality as monster, so I decided to give it a shot. So far I am very impressed with the quality. It seems every bit as good as the more expensive Monster cable, but at about 1/4 the price! With gold plated connectors, double shielding and a heavy outer covering, this cable is top notch...don't let the cheap price fool you. I'd say it is a much better value than the other brands.

Got this cable based on a recommendation from a friend. This cable has better shielding and is flexible for routing to sub/psu/amp. I am and will continue to be impressed with Belkin PureAV products. Gold pin is also a plus. If you are looking to do some wire management, want a reliable cable, and have some good speakers on the other end, this is your cable.

i bought this cable to connect my laptop to my home theatre receiver, eliminating the need for computer speakers whcich could never match up to the sound of my home theatre system. the 12 ft cable is plenty long enough and it is surprisingly high quaality for the price. i don't give the cable 5 stars because i know there are higher quality cables out there with 24 karat gold connectors which will give you a cleaner sound. don't buy the 12ft version unless you need the length because the longer the cable, the more signal loss there is. this is perfect for the average guy who just wants to listen to his mp3's or play PC game audio through home theatre system.

Toslink Digital Optical Audio Cable 6 ft. Review

Toslink Digital Optical Audio Cable 6 ft.
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
As stated in other reviews, bits are bits. If they get from one system component to another, you're doing just as well with a $5 cable as a $60 one. Monster and other companies are ripping consumers off with gobbledeygook buzzwords designed to obscure the mind and open the pocketbook.
I have installed this cable in my system, and its performance delivering 5.1 channel audio and DTS from my PS3 to my receiver is flawless. It performs identically to the other more expensive optical cable I have.
As of my last check of this product page, $1.31 as a list price and $2.98 for shipping makes for a total of $4.29. This is an outrageously good deal, beating even many other discount outlets. If you have a receiver that uses optical digital for audio input (as opposed to HDMI, which most newer receivers utilize), you simply can't go wrong. A definite must-buy at this price.
