Try and cut open any of the analog cables from Monoprice and find out there is more plastic than actual wire. I own and use a few HDMI cables from Monoprice and have no complaints as they work just fine, but that is just about as far as I would go. No I don't use Monster analog cables either and anyone who likes Monster cables or any other better quality brand knows better than to pay full price anyways.

Good cables don't have to cost a lot but if you think Monoprice is selling you a quality product for less you are mistaking. No this is not an endorsement for Monster but HDMI cables is the only thing from monoprice even worth buying.

It's funny that this site rallies around bashing certain products and is quite comical. Perhaps we can have some threads about why people shouldn't buy certain speaker lines from Polk or Klipsch or satellite speakers. Wouldn't we be doing people a favor by telling them they sound like crap. I don't think that will go over too well here, would it ???

The only argument that can be held against Monster cables is that they are overpriced from places like BestBuy. As they can be found for much cheaper if you look around. Who pays retail ???
i think somebody is mad they spent 300 dollors on monster and got 1 hdmi cable

I would like to think this is why already have one and only need one thread about Monster Cables, Bose, etc ..........

Believe me I'm not interested in getting personal and haven't but threads like this are so 1995 and serve no purpose other than to unite bashers. What's the argument ??? Monster cables are overpriced, which we have established 999,087,009.004 times or that Monster cables are crappy ???

I would also like to think people should be able to buy and talk about whatever product they want without worrying about B.S. even if I don't agree.

Also, is it possible to say that the only thing worth buying from Monoprice is HDMI cables ??? Certainly I'm allowed to make such a comment ???

Besides you will never have to worry about me being .............

Andrew does know something about this subject. He does own and use high end equipment. Perhaps you should read what he indicated again. He has stated that he uses Monoprice for at least some of his HDMI cables. He goes on to say that he uses other makers cables for his speaker cables, ICs and Coax cables because they are a better product that may well outperform the inexpensive Monoprice cables in his system.
