Using it to connect one output to two inputs connects an output of approximately 100 ohms impedance to two very high impedance inputs, which works very well at the very low analog audio frequencies. Analog audio is not very demanding, and as long as the cable is reasonably shielded and makes good contact at the connectors, it will work well.
Connecting two outputs together has problems. Standard line outputs have an impedance of about 100 ohms, but can vary. A headphone output, which can usually be used as a line out with success (and is commonly done), has an output impedance of about 30 ohms or so. Speaker outputs, which can also work successfully to a line input (if you don't turn up the volume too high), has an impedance more like 4 ohms. If you connect two line level outputs together with a similar impedance, you might get away with it. Mixing any of the types listed above will provide unpredictable results, usually bad. Connecting two speaker outputs together might burn out the output transistors. In any case, it is NOT the cable's fault. The cable just connects the wires together. It does not perform magic. For connecting two outputs together, a $50 cable will work as poorly as a $5 cable. Use a switchbox instead.
Gave only 4 stars as it is not a super high quality cable, but for the price I was not expecting anything more. At Radio Shack this cable is $16.95. Yes, it is better quality and gold plated, but this one works just fine for my needs.
So use it for connecting one output to two inputs. Do do not use it for connecting two outputs to one input. Use a switch box for that instead. Do not use it for video. Maybe it will work, but it is not designed for that.
for me, this setup works perfectly when trying to connect three devices to an old tv with only two source selections in my son's toyroom. the wii goes to a/v 1, the dvd player video is rca and the media streamer video is component on a/v 2, and the audio also gets combined on a/v 2 via this cable. works like a charm!
anyway, onto the product review. the actual cable does not feel any more durable than the standard rca audio cables that come packaged with most entertainment devices these days. the regular male jacks are also about standard. the piggyback jacks are nothing too special, until you remember that they're piggyback jacks and can combine two audio sources (and yes, of course, split one audio source into two). this is absolutely the only thing that makes this cable special. no fancy gold plating or cable shielding exists with this cable.
if shipping was not included for free, i would have not spent $3.36 for this. i have plenty of rca audio cables laying around that i could have simply spliced together to acheive the same result. really, the main reason i got this cable was to prove that you actually can combine two outputs into one input. don't let the nay-sayers fool you.
1) Because the Airport Express output doesn't have a dedicated left and right female port, the default sound was mono, even if the song was recorded as stereo. That's fine, however the piggyback cable will always prioritize the piggybacked source so it was always mono sound even if the sound was coming from the TV which had dedicated left and right (red & white) outputs. I have to disconnect the RCA male end of the cable running to my Airport Express every time I want to hear stereo sound from my TV.
2) the other flaw also came from its prioritization. It will always prioritize the volume level of the piggybacked source, which in my case is a lower volume setting from the Airport Express. I have to again disconnect the piggybacked cable every time I want to hear the full sound from my TV.
If you're very picky about the sound setup, then i wouldn't recommend this cable. I'll have to deal with this setup until I can a more useful solution and seeming how inexpensive it is, it's not really worth returning.
