Love it but slight problem!!! October 7, 2008
OK, Great product. Love the detail that is shown on my LCD only problem is the audio output wont output to for instance on my TV is a headphone jack input for audio when you set it to VGA. So when I use this cable its all video and no audio. Since I dont have a high speed awesome sound system. So, If you have a sound system separate from your TV that uses digital output. then your in business, if you have independant control over the audio input on your tv and can set you TV to VGA and RCA Audio. Than this cable is perfect. However if your the average kid. or your like me and deployed to Iraq and dont have a sound system to output the audio to. Sorry but this cable is not going to work for you. I highly suggest the HDMI or SCART (If you can find this one) cables.
 Decent at most July 2, 2008
I bought this cabe expecting a respectable difference but only a slight difference at most. I dont have a surround system so i was just planning to use the tv sound but these guys decided not to include an adapter for the jacks since my tv has one 1/8 in mini jack and these are two jacks that are 1/4in so u have to spend 15 more dollars to hear. Makes a difference but definately not worth 50 $. But since i am geting a bigger tv later maybe there will be a bigger difference. And also i had to change my resolution set up and quality setting on my xbox 360 since at first it looked worse but with the adjustment it looked a little better.
 Worth the Amazon price. January 4, 2008

I bought both the Microsoft Xbox 360 VGA cables along with these Monster Cables. The Monster Cable brand was noticeably better then the Microsoft ones when playing Mass Effect on my monitor in 1080p.
Quality picture for a price November 18, 2007

I've had a 360 HD-DVD player for about a year now, along with the MS VGA cable. Recently bought a 52" LCD on Amazon, plugged my Xbox into the VGA port, and was very disappointed to see a pronounced right hand ghost on all images. With a number of options I decided to buy the Monster Brand cable to see if it cleared up the problem. When it arrived I very carefully opened the typical plastic packaging. If this didn't clean up the image it was going back.
Hooked it up (noting an odd mini phone audio jack where the Toslink cable should attach) and turned it on to find a....nearly flawless picture!
Cable quality can sometimes make the difference and in my case this one made all the difference in the world.
The audio connector thing is very annoying. It forced me the buy the 10' Monster Gamelink Fiber Optic cable (which comes with the adapter for the mini jack) to have digital surround sound. I bought mine locally for $20, so I would have been ahead just buying the combo deal here on Amazon. So the real cost of the cable is $65 bucks. If I were smart like you who are reading this and had researched more I would have known this.
I don't like being forced to buy a very specific extra item to enable a standard feature. It's kind of like, "Now, would you like to buy headlights to go with that car?" Bottom line for me is the cable greatly improved my picture, and after all it is on my HD-DVD drive, so it was worth it for me for the PQ.
MINE works great! March 14, 2007

The reason why I purchased this was not for my gaming, but b/c I overheard that the VGA adapter would upconvert standard DVDs when playing them in my HD-DVD add-on drive for the Xbox360. And considering the large amount of DVDs that I do have, I don't feel like buying all new HD-DVD replacements, but I'm a quality buff and it just wasn't doing it for me.
The gaming, I feel, is as sharp as ever and there's no color loss or sound problems. When watching an HD-DVD in the HD-DVD drive, the picture is fantastic and as clear as ever. I then tried playing a standard DVD in the drive, and it was completely what I expected. The quality was that of a 420p or even 720p!! I'm so glad I don't need to upconvert to all new DVDs!
With that being said, I must admit that when playing a standard DVD only, the color does get a bit 'washed out', but again, I've only experienced this when playing regular DVDs. The sound too can get a bit fuzzy, but only in certain spots.
For a cheap way to make your dvds and gaming look their best, and because there isn't HDMI on the Xbox, this is the best alternative. I personally really am enjoying it and there are many more pros than cons. The simple fact that I don't need to go buy HD replacements for all of my movies is awesome! It also helps b/c I can still buy those films that are Blu-Ray exclusive on a regular format DVD and still enjoy it in HD!
