Audio-Cable Reviews

If you want to get the very best out of your video equipment, definitely upgrade your cable to Monster cables. We couldn't figure out why our picture on our 52" TV looked so inferior, despite having satellite -- turned out to be nothing more than inferior cables that came with the set! Even if you have new equipment, it may come with cheaply made cables. Monster cables are excellent -- worth every penny! I also bought some to connect one VCR to another when copying tapes. If you have older equipment and aren't happy with the quality of the picture, this is an inexpensive fix! You'll be glad you did it!

I agree with Max. Don't use those inferior cables that come with your DVD player. I just bought a DVD player and immediately got these Monster cables to connect between the TV and DVD. Image quality is the best I can get on my 20" TV, really cool.

I use these cables with my DVD player. I didn't want to spend($) or ($) on just cables! Also, I didn't want the crappy cables that came with my DVD player. If you are using the video cables that came with your DVD player, throw them out! Get these. They are sooo much better. Amazon says these are good for VCRs but you have to have a good VCR to appreciate Monsters.

Anyway, if you don't want to spend a ton of money on cables, and want quality, choose these.

After having some trouble with the picture on my DirecTV, I decided to try replacing the cables. It was probably the best decision I could have made.

If you've got a lot of things connected in a home theater environment, then you probably know how the signal from some wires can somehow cross over to the other wires close by, and cause little zig-zag lines on your television set or static in the sound. Quite annoying, and fairly common with the cheap free-in-the-box wires, it seems.

These cables from Monster not only improved my picture and sound, but I was impressed at how thick and strong they were. They just blow the cheap wires out of the water if you compare them side-by-side. The high quality design, gold plated connectors, and double shielded coatings work wonders in preventing radio interference and static from other wires and sources. There really is a difference, and it shows. Yet another great product from Monster Cable.

Someone recommended checking out the J2HCAMSM6 which is the same as this product but twice as long and $10 less. If the extra length does not interest you, there is a better option.

For the same price as this excellent product, you can buy an even better Monster Cable, model number I203ASVP1M POD 203. It is an all-in-one cable with even better materials and will help minimize tangled wires. The easiest way to find it is to click on the "high performance connection kits" link while browsing the Monster Cable "audio-video hook-up kits." Check it out.

look up the "Monster Cable J2 HCAM SM-6 Hi-8/S-VHS" kit. Although it is titled for camcorders, it has the Super Video 2 (6 ft) and the Interlink 250 (6 ft) for $10 less. Trust me on this one... I went and looked at the packages to compare. You can also look up the products on the Monster Cable homepage. Enjoy listening!

These are the most amazing cables. I just hooked this up to my Polk RT800I speakers, and my Kenwood VR-2080 receiver and the difference is amazing. The bass is more defined, the trebble is crystal clear. I also got the Z2 Bi-wire cable for my center channel and that made a huge difference also. The voices are alot more defined. Worth the money !

Cable that never let you down! Try it, only you know the different.

I've been using my Z2s for about 1 year now... boy, what a difference. I spent a few days "auditioning" these cables when I first purchased them and the difference was immediately apparent. Bass output is so much deeper and clearer! BIG difference with the low frequencies. Without these cables, my speakers sound muddy and undefined. I didn't notice this, until I used the Z2s. Also, they look great and add a professional touch to your system. If you're looking to add clearer lows and better definition to your system, these guys can even make cheap speakers sound good. I'm now getting ready to buy another set for my A/V system.

My setup is.... B&W CDM 7SEs front Sony STR-DA777ES amp (the rest of the setup probably doesn't concern this discussion)

My old subwoofer cable was the thickness of a twisty-tie,
this cable has the thickness. Typically thicker cables perform better because of a thicker jacket protecting the cable
from interference, and signal loss. This cable provides more responsive crisp sounding bass. It Sounds like I turned up the volume, and bought a new sub with better sound quality.

This cable made by monster Cable improved my subwofer a lot. It gave me clear deep bass at great frequency. I had been using the cable that came with my system I had never really thought about it but when I stumbled across this one i picked it up. It is also great for running across longer paths because you do not lose much of the signal.

This is a great part of your home audio system should you decide to hook your computer or other device with a minijack plug in to it. A good long cable (other lengths are sold both in a M HP-10 and in the THX series). If you are unsatisfied with your current speakers, and have a good hifi system, but lack the digital connections such as S/PDIF out or Optical on your system, this is the way to go.

I previously had tried to connect my PC sound card to my stereo receiver in order to play my MP3's on a real system and not my subpar computer speakers...but the sound I got from those cables, was absolutely horrendous. I quickly did more research and discovered Monster Cable's 20' minijack-to-RCA cable (perfect since my PC and stereo are on opposite sides of my room, I still have cable length to spare) and I was pleasantly surprised with the quality sound reproduction. Of course, the sound coming out of your stereo will depend on the quality of that component itself, but with Monster Cable's dual cable and single length (no extension cords to cause dissipation of the sound signal) you too will want to get this equipment...Especially, if you're an audiophile and listen to MP3's all the time, like me.

If you're like me, you are probably wondering if these little cables are actually worth the money. I was using cheap thin wired connections before, and my receiver would have LOTS of background noise and buzzing, so I thought I'd go ahead and give these things a shot. Afterall, I listen to MP3's all the time on my computer through my high end receiver. I'll tell you what, these things work great, and are worth the extra money. Now keep in mind, I'm an audiophile who is very picky about sounds. So for the casual listener who doesn't mind occasional background hissing or lack of crystal clear sound transfer from your computer to your receiver, you might be able to find a cheaper connection. But once again, I think the extra $$ is well worth it and I HIGHLY recomend these. Your only concern here is an economical one. As far as the product is concerned, these things are top notch. Get the 20 feet if you have to go across the a long wall or room to connect your computer to the receiver, otherwise the 10 ft should suffice.
