5 out of 5 stars A useful budget product   February 4, 2010

These are not top quality cables, but are similar in quality to the types of cables that are included with consumer electronics. These cables can be a versatile tool for the types of things that require this level of quality.

These cables can be used to take the output from something like an iPod and feed it into a mixing console. That's one of the stated uses and can be a practical way of playing along with anything you may have previously mixed and stored on an iPod as opposed to requiring discrete inputs from professional equipment. If your friend put down a guitar track and brought it along on his iPod, you could use it as part of your mix. If you want to take the outputs from your electronic drums and feed them into a computer sound card's jack, you can use this. Or if you want to plug the same thing into your mini stereo so you can play along with a CD to learn a part, this can help too.

These are a few pinch type situations I have found it convenient for as opposed to a serious professional use, but the last one alone gave me an inexpensive and convenient alternative to hooking up a mixing console, merely so my son could play his electronic drums along with a CD. I don't know if this would rise to the level of professional studio equipment, but there are times when the task calls for nothing more or less than what this cable provides.

I give this five stars based on its quality for the price point.

This device allows me to link a microphone preamp to the sound card on my computer. It works exactly as it's supposed to.

This cable is inexpensive but it works great. Also the manufacturing quality seems very nice. I'm getting great sound out of my Alesis 520 studio monitors, which are hooked up to my computer using this cable.

I was having a hard time trying to figure out what kind of cables do I need to connect my laptop to my monitors. Laptop, as you know, generally has a 3.5mm TRS out. My monitors, on the other hand, have a 1/4" TRS input. After researching a bit on the internet, I found these cables. The cable length helps me place my monitors at a decent distance from each other (and I can have them at an elevation too!). These cables are serving the purpose pretty well. I am satisfied with this product.

Work ok if you want something cheap. Start to break if you move them much.
