Pros & Cons
Pros
Cable fits snugly into my lg tv. Works perfectly to transmit 5. Audio to my bose soundbar. Has a slightly loose connection into my bose system. Works great with my senheiser headphone.
The cable is sturdy and well made. The end cap covers are a nice touch. The connector is bulky but very sturdy. Nice piece of gear, great quality of materials, ok attention to detail in the assembly.

Highlights
Quality
This product has performed in a manner that meets all my expectations for top quality sound in my system.
These are well made and the last one we had is going strong after 7 years.
First dac i bought "musou digital optical coax to analog rca audio" had poor volume.
So every time i have to plug this back in, i have to carefully examine the slightly d-shaped tip to see which way is up.
Price
No complaints and the price is right!
Monoprice stuff is always an awesome deal on quality merch.
A bargain when compared to what the store charges
Competitiveness
I use this as a relay cable between my onkyo cd player and my monolith monoprice external dac.
Monprice has some nerve making all these high quality things (cables, headphones, etc) for such a cheap price.
The metal ends are nice, but they printed the brand name on the *side* instead of the top.

Installing it with bare hands resulted in a few minor rope burns so the cable jacket is at least more durable than my skin

Has the appearance of being way over built but the plugs are crooked so the square terminals are always going to look twisted when they are plugged in

This would not bother me if they didnt try to overdo the ascetics so much

I dont think the sound changes at all when you use a fat or a skinny optical cable
