Monster Cable Lawyers having fun?

[Bluestrike_2]

Of course they would.

They're a step up from the crap that comes with your equipment. What we are debating however is their validity, their cost to performance ratio. They fail. F. Why? Because there are tons of cables out there that are better, for less.

Hell, make your own.... Some Canare connectors and a bit of high quality Belden wires and your set...

Although BJC also uses that "combination," so you could get a premade if you don't want to do the work. Of course you pay for that....

well, i dunno. Our car has a bose system and it sounds killer. I personally like bose's stuff. Sometimes its amazing what they can do with such little space.

getting back on the cable topic, I like monster cables, but nothing beats Phoenix Gold. well, not for me....

RadioShack "Gold Series" cables have all of the features of Monster (gold plated ends to avoid corrosion) at half the price.

Once could argue that Monster cables are a larger gague/more insulated, but if you're able to make note of the INFINTESIMAL amount of interference this gets rid of...you're heavy into home theatre/stereo equiptment, and at that point you drop thousands of dollars on 3ft of cable.

Monster is a ripoff, plain and simple. But hey, hype gets you everwhere.

[Aliens-8-MyDad]

yeah what mcd rating? something round a 1000 right? they charge like 3 bucks for a single blue led with 2500 mcd rating i think... i can get any color led with a mcd rating between 5000-6000 for under 10 cents a piece.

Blue is always more expensive no?

I remember having a best buy salesman tell me that their sony car audio stuff was better than the Xtant equipment that I have. They try to explain ohms and impedence matching but they just dont know what they are talking about.

Ive used monster cable and I wasnt too impressed. On my last audio system I bought some 16 ga. copper wire from Home Depot for 9 cents per foot. They wanted around a dollar per foot at Best Buy. I think the chains as strong as its weakest link. When you have a bad reciever and crappy speakers, some good cables wont make it sound better. The money you spend on those Moster Cables is better spent on nicer speakers or a better receiver.
Crap in means crap out.

And...? I'm sure LED's aren't the fastest moving product for them, unlike stereo cables.
