5 out of 5 stars Monster is Monster   November 4, 2006
TheCommish16 (US)
I connected this cable to my 42 inch HD Plasma TV and ran it to a Harman Kardon AVR 240 (which was ranked #1 multi-channel reciever by a consumer magazine) and am impressed with the sound quality. Some will argue that these monster cables are overrrated and over priced, but I've always used them on high end components. If you are going to spend thousands on a home theatre setup, you might as well spend the extra couple bucks and buy the top of the line cables. If it makes even a LITTLE difference, then its worth the 15 or 20 dollars more in my opinion.

Quality company and a great warranty policy as always.

Amazon had the BEST price by far on this item as well.



2 out of 5 stars Overpriced to FOOL anyone still thinking in ANALOG Terms   October 16, 2006

You people are still thinking in analog terms! The beauty of digital transmission of sound data is that the sound quality will not be partially degraded by cheap cables. Either the data makes it through the cable PERFECTLY, or it doesn't get through at all. Thus, data transmission failures will be very obvious (i.e. if your cable doesn't work you'll hear either no sound or sound that goes off and on like someone was flicking a switch); I assert that anyone who reports slight improvements after purchasing a $30 cable is fooling themselves to justify their consumer folly. There is no reason to pay these exorbitant prices for digital cable! Do what I do: use some spare coaxial TV cable you have lying around (you'll need a screw on adapter at each end to convert the F-type TV connector to RCA-type connector, these cost about $2 each at your local hardware or radio-shack type outlet). Remember, when working with a digital signal, either it gets through perfectly or not at all.

This is for the gentelman from Houston who has been lost in the world of cables and wishes to return the Monster Cable IDL 100 Coaxial digital cable. Do not return it!! As another reviewer suggested, you run the IDL 100 from your Digital receiver (it will not work if your receiver doesn't have a digital coaxial out put) to your dvd player. You connect the end of the IDL 100 with the arrows into your digital coaxial out put in the back of your reciver and the other end of the cable into your dvd player (NOT your TV) This cable is an audio cable NOT a video. The back of your Sony TV is for video connections: component, analog or S video. Read your owners manual or visit Amazon.com, find your tv model, your dvd model and read thechnical information. You will be surprise how easy it is.


5 out of 5 stars Terrific Sound Improvement!!   May 28, 2002

For some time, I had been reluctant to switch to coaxial digital cables. I figured I was getting good sound with the optical cable which I paid [price] for, and why should I spend another [price] for digital coaxial cable. Last week I switched to Monster Cable IDL 100 Interlink Datalink 100 coaxial digital cable and now my optical cable is collecting dust in my garage. The difference in the sound is incredible!!! This Interlink 100 cable eliminated "sound inpurities" and turned it into a much crispier, detailed sound. The bass from the subwoofer is crystal clear and powerful but without the "puffy"/distorted bass. dvd players have both connection options in the back. Some new models have only the digital coaxial option. Buy this Interlink 100 and experience the difference yourself. You will not be sorry you switched. I give this product two thumbs up!!!


3 out of 5 stars Good connectors and cable... slight sound improvement.   April 30, 2002

I used this to replace a CommScope 75 ohms coax data cable. Good looking, much better flexibility, but only a little bit sound enhancement. Stereo image a little more defined, and no better fequency extension. Perhaps with a better CD player it'll do the trick.
