1.0 out of 5 stars That's it? A $6 dollar cable and a $14 cable?, October 16, 2004

I was very disappointed when I received this to see that it was simply a package of two cables. Cables that you can pick up at Radio Shack for MUCH cheaper. Just ridiculous. The Airport Express itself is fantastic, but skip this accessory and go to your local Radio Shack for the mini-RCA cable, and a quick search online for the optical to mini.

3.0 out of 5 stars "Monster"s indeed, July 13, 2006

If you are completely helpless with audio, this may be an option. But using "Monster Cable" to play MP3s (or most consumer audio, for that matter) is a bad choice. Very few people could -measure- the advantages of "Monster" cable, let alone hear it.

Standard audio cables these days are plenty good enough for nearly everyone -- unless you're a top-of-the-line studio -- at 1/4 of the price. Gold plated -- if you want something that makes some sense -- helps avoid noise from corrosion.

Cheaper to go to Radio Shack or most stereo stores and get exactly what you want of equal quality at a lower price.
