    Monster is over priced, and not that great. Not many people you find here will like Monster's. You can do much better for the same, or slightly more money. Use the search function for "speaker cables", and get your read on.
    Happy hunting

    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks
    Ben

    The only reason I'm using M cables is because BL gave me a great deal on a **** load of them, so I replaced my Ratshack cables with them. But Ben is absolutly correct. And he is on my list for next cable upgrade.

    Monster cable is better than the stuff your components came with, but not worth buying full price like jakelm stated. Handbuild/home business cables are some of the best price for quality.

    Monster makes good products, however are expensive compared to other product lines. Better value can be had from Blue Jeans, and other manufacturers. I have bought Monster M Series cable used, and it has worked well for my HT.
