Product Description
If you're connecting your Nintendo Wii to a progressive scan television, then these component cables are a must have. The Nintendo Wii is capable of two graphic resolutions, 480i for basic TVs, and 480p for progressive scan TVs. The switch to progressive scan gaming on the Wii will result in a marked improvement in overall image quality, and you can only enable 480p on the Wii with a set of Wii Component Cables.
Customer Reviews:
Nice component cable for the price........2007-12-24
While the first party component cables may be a little better quality the value is WAY better for the Madcatz cable. Does quality 480p output and makes a big improvement on the Wii games. This one is recommended.
Worth it, if cheaper than the 1st party version.......2007-12-23
The Wii Madcatz component cable has worked as advertised for me. The picture quality from standard to 480p isn't that big of a difference, but on an HD TV, every little bit counts. Admittedly, it does take a little while to adjust your eyes, as everything looks a little oversharpened, but I think that's a function of the Wii and not the cable. I bought the Madcatz version because it was cheaper than the 1st party Nintendo version, and would recommend it if that's the case. However, last I checked, the 1st party version was selling for the same price on Amazon, so I'd jump on the 1st party version if that's the case.
No problems yet.......2007-12-19
Had this product for a couple months and it works to expectations so far. Feels kind of cheap, but that's what one should expect at this price. Anyway, it works fine and that's all that matters, right? Right??
Great cable to bring out the best in your Wii!.......2007-12-14
I bought this cable after reading the reviews from Amazon. I am very happy with the purchase and I did see a lot of improvement in the image quality. I cannot compare it with other cables but this one is definitely a good buy.
Great Amazon seller .......2007-12-02
This product was shipped super fast. I received it two days after I purchased it. Thanks a million!

Customer Reviews:
Great value - the audio cuts out occasionally........2007-12-19
I'm a musician and I use the TuneTalk all the time to record song ideas. It has one annoying flaw...often it cuts out. A second or two are just gone. This is expecially annoying when a song suddenly jumps ahead a few words- there goes the tempo when you're trying to play along.
If anyone knows how to fix or avoid this let me know.
Works with a new "Classic" iPod.......2007-12-02
I don't think it mentions it - but it does work fine with a Classic 80gig iPod. Actually it works extremely well for recording college classes. No issues - easy to operate.
Very nice!.......2007-11-27
I bought this for my girlfriend to record interviews. She was using a micro-cassette recorder, and I figured she could use something a bit more modern and with better sound quality.
The sound quality is more than adequate for this purpose, and is definitely better than I expected for such a low-cost item.
The recordings are a much better quality than the special purpose voice-recorders that are available and it's nice to have the almost unlimited storage of your iPod, instead of having to worry about how much time you have left etc.
Overall, it's not great sounding compared to an expensive dedicated field-recording device, but I don't really expect it to, considering its price. If you're looking for something to capture interviews or lectures or generally get a clear and intelligible recording of something to listen to later, it's an unbelievable value. Highly recommended.
GREAT!!!.......2007-11-24
As a student at a top music conservatory, I use the 'TuneTalk Stereo' all the time!!! It's great for recording lessons, coachings, practice sessions, or actual recordings! The quality is very very good especially for the price and size! It fits perfectly into the bottom of my 80 gig iPod and is very easy to use! I definitely recommend this to anyone... especially music students!!!!
Garbage poorly made.......2007-11-21
Within 15 minutes of attaching the tune talk, while trying to adjust the gain the little plastic widget fell right out of the tune talk thingy. I can't comment on the use of the product since I promptly took it back for a refund. It is so shoddily made that while it might be a great product WHEN it works, I wouldn't spend $60 on something that fell apart in jsut 15 minutes. I am a 45 year old woman, not rough on electronics, so I can only imagine what a student would do to this thing.

Customer Reviews:
very clever item!.......2007-12-21
I love the fact that it's an "all-in-one" unit, easily switched to whatever configuration you need. Light and compact, perfect for travel.
Description did not match reality.......2007-12-07
I bought this adaptor specifically for my vacation to China. The product description says it works in China. This is false! The plug configuration is different in China (triangle shape). So this adaptor was useless to me!
Belkin F8E449 Universal AC Travel Adapter .......2007-12-02
This device packs all necessary features into one compact, small package that fits easily in your bags - which is just what you want on the road. The socket adapters easily unfold and with compatibility for European, British and US standard plugs, you pretty much have all bases covered wherever you go.
And what about the performance?
Well, some of you may say "What's there to perform for a travel adapter? All you do is plug in your gadgets, and that's that, right?"
That's almost right, but having tried other travel adapters, there really is a ton of complications you can have with them. Some adapters fall of the wall when you connect heavier plugs (esp. ones where the charger/converter is built into the plug). Others are finicky and sensitive to touch or accidental bumps, losing charge off and on. Others won't fit a number of sockets for some reasons. And so on...
But on the contrary, the Belkin F8E449 Universal AC Travel Adapter comes through as one reliable, sturdy device. It keeps up the current even if accidentally touched or bumped into and hugs the wall like Spiderman.
So in short, this is a reliable device at a great price point / value, and a versatile companion on the road.
Just remember that you may still need an electric currency transformer for some devices, so check the voltage range on the device or charger before plugging it in - this will save you from eventually frying the heck out of it.
Does not convert!!!.......2007-11-26
This does not convert, it just adapts, you will fry something easily!!!
That is a very important point to leave out in your ad!!! They are misrepresenting themselves!
Does not do voltage conversion.......2007-11-13
Amazon's description is misleading - it implies this product does voltage conversion, it does NOT. If you buy this, make sure your electrical items can use 110V or 220-240V.

belkin wireless G, some issues........2007-12-18
I have this installed and often I have to reboot the thing to get it to work. A tech frind of mine says I should have went with a LINKSYS. I just may do that.
Not Ready For Prime Time.......2007-12-18
This wifi gateway router technically 'works' but did not at all meet our ordinary domestic needs. We ultimately had to return it.
defective product.......2007-12-08
it was defective, and it has taken about a month to get the refund back. i am very dissapointed because i need the refund before christmas!!!
If you require Tech Support and only speak English - Do Not Buy.......2007-12-05
Earlier today I was attempting to install a Belkin Wireless Router at home. While doing the installation it came to the point where it would not connect to the internet. The set-up software instructed me to call technical support. When I called the number I got a nice lady who spoke very rough English. After many request for her to repeat herself, we finally got it to connect. However, it was moving extremely slow and the set up software did not give me an option to continue through on the set-up. My efforts to explain this to the lady were futile. She kept saying "but you are connected now, thank you." I finally gave up and played with it myself for about 15 minutes. After having no success, I called technical support again and this time got a nice man whom I also could not understand. After a few minutes of laboriously giving him all of my personal information again and then painstakingly going through the basics in my frustrating attempt to explain the problem, I finally gave up and went to the office to work. After that I tried to fax my question in writing to Belkin but the fax number on their website did not work.
I am not a racist and have many multi-cultural friends; however, if you only speak English with a normal midwestern accent you will most likely have problems communicating with the technical support team which I presume is located in India.
pure trash.......2007-12-02
I have fairly new system running XP and I have COMCAST internet service along with their ARIS cable modem. After a weekend of trying to get just the internet to run with this router I called Belkin for help. They walked me through a bunch of steps and the internet finally came on. It stayed on for all of 45 seconds and no amount of resets or re-installs would bring it back. A few more calls to tech support without success got me a replacement unit in the mail. It arrived in a few days. Super service I think. Several more days of set, reset, install, re-install netted me a grand total of three minutes of internet connect. I figured to hell with this. I set it up as a wireless adapter and it worked fine with the other end using a Linksys wireless USB adapter. By the way, the little Linksys unit installed, Zip-Pop, without a hitch. Then I changed the router and adapter between my two computers and I received the same results. Linksys installed on the first try but the Belkin was a real struggle to get running. Things ran good. Remember, no internet just a LAN. OK. Got tired and shut everything down for the night. The next day I fired everything up and would you like to take a WAG as to which unit refused to work? Don't think on it too long. The correct answer is the Belkin, Model F5D7230-4. I just ordered a Linksys unit from Amazon and I am going to give the Belkin to someone that I really hate. That is, if I can find some one like that. It's too damn small for a door stop. Belkins teck support was courteous enough and probably knowleable enough but the product sucks! Go and buy 100 feet of wire. No problems there.

Customer Reviews:
Didn't work for me!.......2007-12-26
Our older XP Home PC has been the family PC for several years. When I built our new Vista PC, I thought that I had found the perfect solution to automate the job of transferring our files and settings. But no...
I'm sure the cable works OK mechanically, but the Windows Easy Transfer Wizard was simply a dud. It never successfully completed a transfer of all of our files from one PC to the other, and I tried for several days using every combination of settings.
Again, I don't blame Belkin, but Microsoft's wizard tool simply wasn't up to the challenge. I ended up re-installing Vista from disk at one point because my daughter couldn't even logon under her id. At that point, I decided to call it quits.
I hooked up both PCs to our router and manually transferred the files over the network. Applications like MS Office, Quicken, etc, I reinstalled from disk. Slow and manual, but much more satisfying in the end.
Easy Transfer non-transfer.......2007-12-20
My rating for this product is not for the cable itself, but for the braindead Microsoft Easy Transfer application when using the ET Cable. On my XP system I had user data on the 'D' Partition. In Vista the 'D' partition is used for some Vista system recovery stuff. When you use the Easy Transfer application with the ET Cable it moves data from where ever you had it on the source system (XP in my case)to the corresponding location on the target (Vista) system. The 'D' partition size in Vista is 10 GB, about 7 GB of which is used, so after transferring approx 3 GB of data you get a filespace error.
When you use removable media (e.g., CD, thumb drive) you evidently get a choice of where to put the data on the target system but not when the ET Cable is used,
If you have data on the 'D' partition on your source system, save yourself the $30.00 for the cable and invest it in a 4GB or 8GB thumb drive.

* Vista PC will automatically detect the connection and ask if you want to run Easy Transfer
* Select Run Easy Transfer on Vista PC
* On XP PC select: (a) files you want to transfer, and (b) where on Vista PC you want to save files
Belkin Easy Transfer Cable for Windows Vista .......2007-12-13
Extremely easy to use. Comes with its own CD. One needs to remember that two monitors are needed to accomplish file transfer, one for the old XP computer, the other for the new Vista computer. Transfer requires that each computer has a USB port available. Programs cannot be transferred using the software supplied. There is a beta version of a program transfer system available from Microsoft but I have not dared to try it yet.
Easy Mover.......2007-12-10
Used the Belkin Easy Mover to transfer files from Windows XP to new Vista computer. It worked easily and was sucessful. The Laplink system is way too complicated and not worth the effort.

Fantastic sound!.......2007-12-21
Shortly after I got my iPod a year ago I bought a cassette adapter so that I could play my iPod over my car stereo. The sound quality was laughable! After that experience I was put off by the negative reviews for all of the FM transmitters for the iPod and decided to simply use my ear buds in the car.
I finally got tired of that and decided to buy this Belkin FM transmitter. WOW! I wish I had bought this a year ago! Most of the time the sound quality is as good as listening to a CD. There is just a tiny bit of distortion every so often, and I don't know if it is because of the FM connection or if my speakers are starting to go.
Maybe this works so well for me because my antenna motor is broken and my antenna is usually down, so I get less interference from radio stations. But this has been the best iPod accessory I've bought so far!
Works well for me.......2007-11-08
For those who are curious or need the additional info, the TuneFm has a 5-pin mini USB port on it. So you can even use a Motorola phone charger (like the one issued for the RAZR) to charge the Ipod when connected to the TuneFm. I lost the original car charger that came with it, so I just got a Motorola one off Amazon for $8. Done.
The device works great for an FM Transmitter. As others have noted, it does have to be real close to the FM tuner (on the dash of your car or right on top of your stereo) but it does work quite well.
I was hoping for more.......2007-10-11
After reading several reviews of the TuneFM, I was excited about the prospect of listening to my iPod Nano in my car. But I've been pretty disappointed by the product's quality. Even when I can find a frequency that is interference-free, the quality of the sound is pretty bad. Not even FM-quality, in my opinion. Maybe I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up.
Sound quility, there is none.......2007-09-14
I was completely let down by this product. From what I read it was supposed to be a great tool to get your IPOD to play music over the radio in your car. After searching almost every station for better reception, none worked with crisp clear sound that would come from tuning into a radio station. Lots of static, thats about all I got. Waste of money! I will update my car stereo with a input jack instead of wasting more money on a similar solution.
Good all around FM Mod........2007-08-30
Good product. signal sometimes not great, but usually good. when using it's scan feature, easier to find a good station. works good in my wife's Santa Fe, not as well in my Explorer as I had hoped. I can use it in the house, and in the garage. also handy that it's a mini USB connection, as I can use other chargers to power/charge the unit.

Another Reason To Buy These Cables.......2007-07-17
Ran the cables that came with my system thru my wall and wanted to have freedom to move system without massive work for when my wife kicks me out of the family room. Now I just move my system and power cord and I am gaming where she is not...LOL!
Worked fine for abut a year.......2007-07-05
The cables worked fine for about a year. Now the cable seems to work sometimes but for the most part it just shows purple lines going across the screen. I have to switch from regular tv to hdtv a few times to make it work. The sound always comes thru just the video has problems.
Great cable, exactly what i needed.......2007-05-07
Has an AV left-right to phone jack converter. In addition to a vga dual ended cable, to connect to your CRT screen or VGA enables screens and or even video input graphic cards. Pretty cool
A mistake to buy this cable.......2007-03-16
I purchased this cable new to go with my new hdtv. It worked fine for six weeks until I could not get a picture. I mess with the cable and get an off color picture on the screen. I mess with the cable more and it worked for two days. Now it gets a wobbly picture on the screen which I cannot get rid of. I never moved the xbox but it just started happening for no reason. What a waste of money for over priced cables.
I would spring for the extra ten bucks and get the monster cables at least you have a far less chance of dealing with the mess I have. I have had great luck with monster in the past but was too cheap and decided to trust microsoft.
Note: I bought the microsoft vga cable at a local store and the picture was horrible and might as well have been the lowest end. If you have hdtv then steer clear of anything less than component cables (monster). It is amazing the difference in quality. Also it was stupid of microsoft not to include an hdmi connection for the 360.
buy this if you got the core 360 and own an HDTV.......2007-03-09
If you bought the core system, you get a basic cable. If you own an HDTV (720p/1080i/1080p) you'll need this component cable (or VGA if your TV has that option). If you use a DD5.1 audio receiver, you'll need the optical digital cable with connects to this cable (TOSlink).
Vs the Monster cable? This cable seems to work fine. I am able to find general 50' premium component cables on the internet for less than the price of the Monster cable. I didn't notice any significant difference in quality of Monster over the MS cable.

great cable.......2007-12-24
It may not be a Monster cable, but it works great. i have my PS2 set to component video output, and it looks great on my 1080i plasma. not using the audio portions, as i'm using my optical output.
Component av cables bring along long awaited visiual bliss.......2007-09-21
it was very effective in bringing out the vivid colors and sharp details i have been missing out on.
PS2 component cable.......2007-07-03
Cable works great if you have a HDTV and I can notice a difference in picture quality. The price for this cable is well worth it.
Well worth the buy if you own a HDTV.......2007-06-08
If you own a HDTV, I would highly recommend buying a component cable for use with your PS2. Games are not only clearer and sharper, but color is much better as well as saturation. It's almost as if you are playing a new game, really. DVD's look slightly better, but game improvements are much more significant. Maximize the use of your HDTV and use a component cable.
Component cables.......2007-05-14
This cables really improve the video quality, will recommend then if you are looking for better video quality, of course, it also depends on your tv set. Be sure you hace enough video component inputs available on your tv before buying if you have a dvd or other video device attached to it.

Good cables but there are cheaper.......2007-11-30
I've always had good results with the Belkin name so when I decided to upgrade to HDMI I went with them. The prices are better then what you will find in a brick and mortar store but there are cheaper.
The cable is well made and high quality. I had no problem with picture quality or connection issues when setting everything up and like the feel of the cables.
I had a lot of components to hookup so next purchase I decided to try out a cheaper cable that had good reviews. I ended up getting a few of these, Cables To Go - 40315 - 2M (6.5ft) Velocity HDMI Digital Video Cable (Blue), and was not disappointed. They are flimsier than the Belkins but are still a good quality cable. If you'll never touch the cables again after hooking everything else up go with the Velocity but if you plan to mess with the cables on a regular basis the Belkin might be a better idea for you.
HDMI not suitable for Motorola DVR's.......2007-11-16
HDMI cables do not work well with Motorola DVR's. They are slow showing the picture when switched on and do not forward the Close Captioned (CC) signal to the TV. That's why the cable company (Time Warner) suggested the use of a component (3-prong) video cable combined with a two prong audio cable, a solution that--according to tests with other equipment--provides equally good quality as an HDMI cable.
Can't justify paying for Monster Cable!!! Try Belkin's.......2007-10-09
I have now purchased multiple cables from the Belkin PureAV line and I am very impressed with the quality of cable. These cables are much better than the below $10 ones in quality but are much cheaper then the ones from Monster and other "Premium" companies. All of the manufacturers make their components in China now, and are only Engineered and Designed in the US. If you are looking for quality AV accessories look at the PureAV stuff from Belkin, they are a great value.

You definitely get what you pay for! Way better than the first party cables.......2007-11-10
I just bought these cables for my Wii and man, it makes a GREAT difference! I recently had the first party Nintendo component cables, but when I found out about these, I had to get them. I sold, that's right sold, my first party cables to get the Monster ones and there IS A BIG DIFFERENCE in performance! My brother and I immediately noticed the difference in performance. We thought the first party cables were good until I put these babies on, and it's like night and day.
Not only are the cables thicker, when you install them, you can feel them getting a good connection as they aren't too easily removed or installed. Also, the Monster cable is longer that the first party one, letting you have some flexibility on where you can put the Wii. Even GameCube games with Progressive Scan compatibilty look beautiful when playing on the Wii. I also recommend getting your TV adjusted using the THX optimizer (w/the THX Blue glasses if you can) on any THX Certified DVD to bring out the picture in any TV. You will not be dissapointed!
Monster chews-up and spits-out all other component cables.......2007-08-20
Monster Wii cables make a huge difference by improving the audio quality.
Initially had bought React component cables since they seemed to be better built than the Nintendo brand (Monster Wii cables weren't available yet). And the sound from the React was terrible! Very shrill--Like having the treble pumped all the way up and the bass turned all the way down. The theme music from Sonic was really beginning to grate...
Then I decided to buy the Monster cables since I knew the improvements they could provide with the Game Cube and X-Box. For the Wii, the Monster cables deliver a very clean and balanced sound--which was what I was hoping for the most.
The image also seems "deeper"--for whatever that's worth, perhaps I will notice it more on newer games as developers refine their techniques.
Thank you Monster Cable! Now back to my game.
Cheaper isn't better.......2007-08-04
So I needed some HD cables for my Wii. And being analong outputs (not digital) I needed something shielded to get the cleanest image.
At first I tried a brand that was a fraction of the price. They worked fine, but with the money I saved, it just felt wrong. I didn't know what to do with the $50, so I just rolled it around the cables likes insulation or shielding. That really hampered the flexibility of the cables and I think it caused more interference.
So then I returned the cables to the store and used that money to buy these. Now my Wii looks exactly the same as if I had used the other cables, but I don't have to worry about what to do with that extra cash.
Ridiculously Overpriced.......2007-08-04
There's simply no reason to pay such high prices for a cable that doesn't work any better. There is no difference between the picture quality that you get from these cables compared to that of other third party component cables that can be purchased for around $15 to $20. Even Nintendo's official component cables are cheaper than these.
That having been said, component cables do provide a significant improvement in appearance. Color and sharpness are improved, and it allows for progressive scan (if your television supports it). I highly recommend buying a set of component cables, especially for an EDTV or HDTV, but I do not recommend these specific cables.
