Functionally, the product worked as intended. My iPod nano 4th Gen was able to send R/L signals to my stereo using this product. However, they made the housing of the the 3.5mm plug so big, it can't be plugged in at the same time as the USB adapter. So either I can use the iPod with the stereo, or it can be charging via a USB power adapter. But not both. So now I have to remember to perform a cable switch every time I turn on or turn off my iPod. For those who don't know, iPod nano 4th Gen has the USB and 3.5mm jacks right next to each other on the bottom of the unit. Some of the blame lies at Apple's feet as they put those two connectors so close. But Belkin made the plug housing far larger than most 3.5mm plugs are these days. Apparently in effort of having a sleek design. I'd rather it work with the highest-selling nano to date.

If you are contemplating purchasing a similar off-brand product for a slight savings, consider this product as worth the extra couple bucks. I have bought multiple Stereo link cables in the past, normally generic cables for $2-3 less than these and I've also picked up monster cables in the past -- The sound quality on the Belkin cable is great compared to the off-brand, and is comparable to monster cables. These cables reduced a lot of interference noise i was receiving when linking my computer output to my TV -- I had assumed this was a sound card issue and not a cable issue, but this cable cured the problem. I would highly recommend this product for anyone looking to output sound from a PC through your TV.

Bought this because I saw it in a store, but they could not beat Amazon's price with free S&H and no tax. It looks really nice and works great. I have an aux input device installed in my stock stereo for my car, and the audio from the mp3 player is great, especially coming from my car speakers. The white and silver is a nice touch, but since its in my car, it gets dirty pretty quickly.
