Is this the proper cable to connect a DAC to a headphone amp? Both components have RCA inputs.

BEST ANSWER: No, this cable would be an input to your DAC from a digital source. The cable you need will depend on your DAC, but it's most likely either a regular RCA stereo pair or a 3.5mm single analog cable.

This is a digital cable. It is to connect the digital output of a Source to a DAC or a receiver/prepro digital input. You need an analog one in the Monolith series.

No, this would be the cable to connect the digital audio to your Dac. A standard audio cable (non-digital) would be best to connect your DAC to the Amp.

Yes this would work. Be aware that this is a single cable . If you want left, right channels (stereo) you will need to buy 2 cables.

Hello, what sounds best, connecting pre-outs to amp with rca or digital coaxial?

Depends on what you're connecting - if you are connecting pre-amp outs to amplifier inputs, you would need to use regular RCA connection cords. The digital coax cable is used to connect a digital output from a CD player or maybe a satellite dish to a DAC, which might be a separate unit or an input on your preamp or integrated amp.
I have several stand-alone DACs that have CD players connected to them with a digital coaxial cable and one preamp that has a built-in DAC that requires the coaxial cable connection. You can also use a Toslink optical cable if you have that type of output on your source device, but most people seem to feel the coax connection can give better sound.

Digital cable can also be used to carry analog signals. Don't believe anyone who says otherwise! In fact, in applications where consistently maintained resistance is essential or helpful, a digital cable will often outperform an analog cable because digital cables must maintain a resistance of 75 ohms throughout their length. Cheaper analog cables are seldom manufactured to such a high standard.

Either is fine. So long as its rated for Digital Audio, just about any coaxial cable will work. All it does is transmit 1's and 0's. . It will work or it wont. There's no in between.

Well build
I wanted to get some coaxial cables to pair with the new Monolith x11 home theater amplifier that I just bought. I was surprise how solid build it is. The connection is tight and it looks better in person.
I'm happy for the clean clear sound I hear from my system. Worth the money.

Does not fit into digital coaxial of my DAC while other RCA cable will
It is built like a tank BUT does not fit into the digital coaxial into my Topping digital to audio converter. Other cheap RCA cables have no issue at all. It does fit into other device but the prong is too big and make the connection loose/note secure. When I ask the question to the Monoprice.com staff, they say this is one of the "new" RCA cable with the shorter male part which I never heard of. It is not in the product description either. Bad product and should be discontinued.

Inexpensive and yield very positive results
These made a significant audible difference, they are inexpensive, I dropped them between my dac’s output and my preamps input, these are called “digital” but I used them for analog connections. If you are wondering about using a better interconnect but not sure if it would be worth it, (some can get absurdly pricey) well give these a try. You will be quite pleasantly surprised.

Nice coax cable at a great price!
The Monoprice digital coaxial cable does an excellent job of delivering the digital sound-stream from my CD player to my DAC.The connectors are high quality and give a good secure fit. The sheathing even has a nice appearance to it and the cable has enough flexibility to make installation a snap. It's a great bargain if you need a cable for this type of connection.
