Overpriced, but good quality
I have bought marks it of the monster of the HDMI cable, because the types to the city of the circuit raved approximately the quality. Well, it is a cable well-made and the supplier of the Amazon was much more little expensive one of placed great (cities to you of the circuit, buy better, even Wal-wal-Mart.) However, I have made a sure search and I have bought a cable of the SONY Playstation HDMI 1,3 that is good equally how much the monster approximately to the half of prices. Still, I have bought hardly 10' a cable of outside-marks HDMI from a supplier of the Amazon for $12 and moreover it works perfectly! Therefore, it saves your moneies and it does not feed "the monster".


Enough of the technical Jargon already, It boils down to Picture and Sound
Ok, so as technology improves and we see consumers moving to HD TV, HD media, HD appliances, naturally this is going to be the standard as retailers significantly phase out the obsolete CRTV that almost seem from a different planet which is truly amazing. As plasma and LCD tv's have gone down substantially in price over the past two years they can be still expensive depending upon the brand and features you want. At any rate, since everyone is jumping on the band wagon and the sudden craze and inundation of HDTV flood the market there are going to be other ball players hungry for your money, Monster co. is definitely one of them. I am not going to give a impartial review considering I own two different Monster cables (HDMI to HDMI, HDMI to DVI) and two other no-name brands, (HDMI to HDMI, HDMI to DVI). Unfortunately, I still have the two monster cables because there purchase date is beyond the retail return date.

Upon entering the HD World, I had no idea what i was getting into, I purchased both of my HDTV's at local retailers, and of course each of the sale associates advised me that the Monster cables was crucial, and no other cable was comparable. OK, I take your word for it considering your not working on commission. I buy an HDMI Cable form Monster at a local bestbuy. I reconfirm it's quality with it's exorbitant price($90) with other employees and I got the same answer naturally, (Probably not the smartest maneuver) at any rate, the price turned my stomach a tad, considering they had no other alternatives or other name brands, (Just monster and rocketfish) both similar in price range. I have to admit the cable looks fine and worked fine with my LCD Samsung 32". It looked like a durable cable and functioned like a durable cable with it's soothing color scheme, 24K gold plates, and a very sexy "M" logo on the end. (you get the point). However, your not buying the cable for it's looks more like for quality which I am all about. Although the cables worked fine, I was still curious about the hefty price and I came across respected electrical engineering sites along with some
friends about HDMI Cables (to my chagrin I should of done the research before I bought the cables) and they told me I basically got duped big time, and I mean BIG TIME. Sure Monster cable will entice you with it's fancy physical looks and special braided wires, along with a 24K gold piece, faster signal than 2.2 gps and no external interference..blah blah The truth is people it literally boils to down a simple digital signal, there is no middle ground here. Either your tv is getting the signal or not, end of story which I have found myself hard to believe considering there are HDMI cables as cheap as $2-10! But business is business right, someone has to make money right? But you know what, every retailer you go to whether it be bestbuy, circuit city, or radioshack you can be sure there will a flood of monster cables along with incompetent sales associates enticing ignorant consumers like myself trusting there opinion. Trust me you will not find $2 HDMI Cables in retailer stores, well at least not at the big chain retailers. Now being how rare it is find to cheap HDMI cables in retailer stores, I purchased two online from amazon, no-name brands (Cables to-go) in the range of $10-12. I think the HDMI to DVI was alittle more expensive at 13.99 in comparison with Monster's ($90) I didn't want to go too cheap, because i truly thought these cheap prices reinforced the old adage, "To good to be true," well when I got the cables I immediately did a trial and error, to my surprise there was absolutely no difference in picture or sound. Someone could literally put a gun to my head, and i wouldn't be able to tell which one is which. These cables truly defied that old-adage and put me in shock. That $70 premium that your paying is really for the "M' logo, this concept hasn't changed and is manifested through a myriad of other categories, clothes, cars, electronics ect. Once you surpass a certain standard of quality, the rest is profit margins for the brand, but seriously, I have to laugh when you look at the Monster cables boxes and websites, that are really adamant on correcting "THE BIG MISCONCEPTION" that HDMI Cables are in fact different in terms of speed, connection, thats a load of garbage, As long as your Tv functions and that signal is somehow making it to your tv or console your good to go. Psychologically speaking, consumers who drop as much as 4,000 to 5,000 on Plasma or LCD tv's may think, well, i spent this much money, what's an extra $200 on some nice HDMI cables right? This is where retailers capitalize, and usually succeed, well at least with me they did, which I was throughly angry at, but hey you learn from your mistakes right? Trust me, these cheap cables deliver in pristine quality whether you have 32" or 50" 1080 bp, they do justice. Just don't make the same mistake I did which is not doing research....


Monster cable
Just bought it for about 20% less than at the store. I had a $25 HDMI cable and to be honest do not visually see a difference in picture quality on my 52" sharp aquos.


Yes, it does make a difference !



Is it really just another cable?
After the investment 58"in a new TV I have wished to make sure that I was using one of possible the better cables. There was pleanty of the great reviews found the Internet everywhere. I cannot protest approximately the quality of the image or sound (has receiving of stereotipia 7,1 with the input of HDMI) but really I cannot say to the difference between this cable and a sure one cheep that it has bought outside of the And-bay. Not to say this is not a large one or the advanced cable, would have to perhaps save the sure moneies and to buy the 700 or 800 series preferibilmente.


Save you $$$$$



Major rip-off
HDMI is marks them numerical, a 1 and 0. A well constructed cable (you can obtain that one for $10) will work large just. The monster it is an important cheat, thinks before that you buy!!


Works well
Pretty straightforward connecting the DVD player to my LCD Hi-def TV using this. Buying it in best-buy/circuit-city would've cost me thrice as much. Have used it for a month and get good DVD reception overall. No complaints.


Review of Monster HDMI 1000HD 6 Meter Cable
Product arrived ahead of schedule and as advertized. Product works perfectly as used for connecting Preamp HDMI v1.3 output to 1080P projector.


Monster 1000HDMI Cable
I purchased these cables (2) for peace of mind. I have these cables hooked up to my dish box and my blue ray player and can't honestly say that I can tell a noticeable difference in the quality of picture compared to my HD player with a cheaper Philips brand cable. I purchaded a Samsung LCD with the auto motion plus so for my own peace of mind I wanted to go with high quality cables. The picture is great with these cables and they were half the price that best buy was selling them for.


Hey its a HDMI cable
Hey job of these cables! Some people are crazy have spold all the moneies on these cables, but if you made your search you she would have known if she imported that type of HDMI you have need or if difference were one. They have been ALWAYS made an impression with the products of marks of the monster. They are that what paid... high quality. It does not mean that these are better then one mark or one version more little expensive. These cables make exactly that what demands... transports an image HD from your sintonizzatore or the accessory of HD.


THE BEST HDMI IN THE WORLD!!!!!
Belive it or not this expensive HDMI does make a diffrence over the cheaper ones. If you dont want to spend much then I suggest buying one from monoprice .


Monster Over Priced Cables
Not creeds the constant strafing of the monster ' of the rappresentazione of the facts why you would have to pay bucks large their cables. The HDMI cables 1.3a can little be had for how much 10 bucks for footer 6. If a cable has the appraisal 1.3a is enough good for 1080p and all the audio versions. Closed case


Great picture now
Easy hookup. Picture looks much better and clearer now. Used this to hook up HD LCD TV to an HD Dish receiver. Picture was so-so before, now it's very clear.


Just as Expected
Cable arrived about two weeks after ordering. Price was about half of Circuit City price. Everything was fine.


Ultra Not
I own alot of monster cables, mainly M series with one Z series, I would swear by monster. have had no problem paying the price in the past 25 years for what I considered a great cable. Same here when I bought this cable. Hooked it up to a Pioneer Pro Plasma and a Panasonic 30 blueray 1080P 1.3. put in newly arrived flyboys, after about 30 seconds of play the screen went blank and a code of U73 appeared on the Panasonic. checked the cable to ensure the cable was all the way pluged in on both components, it was. returned to the movie again, after a few minuites picture gone again,code U73 back again. got out the manual- check cable. so I moved everything again grabed a spare Philips PXT1000 HDMI pluged it in and watched the entire movie with no problem. I hate to say it, but I agree with some of the other reviews.since monster has moved their operations overseas, I feel the quality and name does not mean a thing anymore. the old addage you get what you pay for no longer applies.
I just purchased 2 more Philips PXT1000 cables for less than 1 Monster. have had no problems with them on my 50"
or my 37". the 37" LCD my kids use for playstation 3 and have had no problems in 1080P 1.3 , could I recomend the monster cable? NO


Great Performance High Quality wires
To tie large high-quality of Peformance, I can really see the difference with the escape in the performances of color and the image of the HDTV/HDMI connections.


Great quality picture with Full HD 1080P
The difference on quality of the picture after changing to this cable is outstanding, I hooked it up to my PS3 and new 1080P HDTV with HDMI 1.3 and Blue-Ray movies look better than ever. A little overpriced but give you piece of mind that is ready for the future.


awesome!!!
This item was a gift for Christmas, the person who received it is very happy with it, and I was very pleased and impressed with the speedy shipping of the item (got here faster than estimated). Thanks!


Very Good
Task is little an expensive one. But excellent resolution from my player of DVD, also not blue HD DVD or dvd of the beam, all the dvd


It is a rip off
Before that it buys this cable that I was using the cable of Philips HDMI from the blue beam of the SONY to my pioneering plasma TV and the image was better than that what I see hour using the cable of the monster. I am really using the European version 750 HDMI. They said that simply every claim that you can read on the box it is right not to align. The image is less cutting that my Philips HDMI and the collors is different, pricipalmente seems to have one light ink much of green/yellow, to times visible in the red colors. The contrast is not good as that what I have realized with Philips that was obviously much more little expensive one. Even if the image is not therefore as well as different from my cable originates them, when I am watching a film thinks as something lacks, so as to continuous to record my regulations of the TV, but I seem not to obtain the intentional result.


Excellent HDMI Cable
High~quality, very flexible.
Works great with my Samsung BD-U5000 Blu-ray/HD-DVD player.
Only wish I'd have bought another for my HD-DVR!


Overpriced
Completely Overpriced. There is no doubt these are good cables, but I recommend getting something like Phillips medium or high end (forgret their low end). Radio Shack also sells medium end cables that are perfectly good (again forget about the low end) If you plenty of money to burn go ahead and get Monster. You will probably find the cheapest price for them here on Amazon. But I recommend not wasting your money!


Gauranteed bandwidth is worth the price, should be much more flexible
I bought three 1000HD cables in various lengths and they are very well made, and work as advertised.

Much of the commentary on these reviews leaves out an important factor in the "digital is digital" critiques. The specifications for HDMI include many levels of bandwidth that are required for various digital formats. HDMI is unique in that if a given cable (or any component) cannot deliver the full bandwidth for a given format (i.e. there are too many errors received) it automatically steps down to the next lower standard, until it gets to one where it gets error-free data. As a result, some users observe that they get a picture with a cheap cable. Most HDMI cable is adequate for what Cable TV boxes and up-sampled DVD's output, so this expensive wire may not add any value there.

The claims Monster makes on their website for what bandwidth is needed each format, however, are all correct and true to the standards documentation. For HDMI 1.3a, for example, to get Dolby TrueHD uncompressed audio, DTS Master Audio, and deep color video at 1080p, you need substantially more bandwidth than for a cable box with only Dolby Digital and 1080i. If you purchased new equipment that offers these highest resolution formats, I believe the guarantee that this cable exceeds the specified requirements is worth paying more to have.

I did not rate the product a "5" because it is ridiculously stiff, however, something that could well be improved at this price.


A sucker born every minute...
Anyone that satisfied more than 10 dollars a HDMI cable is pollone, no if to this purpose. The quality that better of the image they are signaling in these reviews cannot be possible! It is it marks them numerical, or it works 100% or it works 0%. The monster that the cables are one of the scams larger outside here, it would have to be illegal!


Don't get TAKEN
There is NO difference between this and any other reasonably built HDMI cable you can buy for $10 or less, here, or elsewhere. NONE. AT ALL. This is not an opinion, it's engineering.

The only thing buying this cable will add to your life is the comfort and knowledge that you helped subsidize Monster Cable's sponsorship of a baseball stadium. And if that doesn't tell you how much profit these guys make selling ice to eskimos, nothing else I can say will.

Don't get ripped off.


Don't pay for this!
I went to MIT where I took classes in electrical engineering, so I'm writing from a knowledgeable background here.

An expensive HDMI cable - or an expensive cable for any digital signal, when a working inexpensive version is available - is a waste of money. This is one of the great things about digital - it either works or does not work. This is not like analog audio/video cables, where the quality of the cable influences the output. An HDMI cable can only do one of two things: work or fail.

Since Amazon sells a number of cables that will work and are far less expensive, save your money and spend it on discs or games for whatever you're hooking up.


HDMI Monster Cable Review
After the substitution of typical cables audio video with my new one monster of HDMI I tie, I could see an immediate improvement in the quality of the image. On my stations of HD, I receive the images 1080i of where before, I have received 480i. A day, I hope to receive marks them 1080p on my television 1080p.


rip-off
I have bought a HDMI-cable from the monoprice for $5 and it is really high-quality and it works perfectly with my plasma of 1080p and PS3 Panasonic. It marks them of HDMI is digita them therefore is benefit in spending $100 here on this cable when you obtain the same result with a cable $5.


The best for the buck hands down
Not not sprec your moneies on cables more little expensive than HDMI if you can allow this. Remarkable difference in the quality of the image with this cable like apposed is one to those more little expensive ones. Definitively it would suggest this product.


A total rip off. HDMI is HDMI...it is digital people!!!
Finchè the cable works the image will be identical. You are moneies throwing just via if bought a high cable of extremity HDMI. Just Buy one for $10 to an electronics warehouse or for $5 online. You will not absolutely benefit from the purchase of to rediculously overpriced the cable of HDMI like this.


is it better? who really knows but why go cheap
Bought and installed the cable, it works large. I have bought hardly $2000 SONY TV and satisfied approximately $70 months service via cable of the hd. Why I would buy a little expensive cable?


Can't beat the price
They say to you, you read it and is to align, it does not buy your cables in I placed you of mortor and the mattone. The better prices are online. Amazon was of right in the ballpark and convenient to use. Nizza that impacca, produced of quality for a price resonable.


Great Cables
Don't fool around with all those other brands - this is it. Might cost a little more but very well worth the price.


Better than the cheap ones
While I have read here and other places that not are visible difference little expensive and better cables in means of degree HDMI, my visual experience does not support that sight. Not as soon as I have passed from cables of HDMI that have come from my company satellite to these, I have noticed an immediate improvement and in some dramatic way to colors and the clarity that has been worth the price.


great HDMI cable
worth the money. don't get a top of the line TV without top of the line connections.


Great product
I am very happy with my purchase. Fast delivery and great product. This is the first time I bought Monster cables but they work great and are really sturdy.


Monster HDMI Cable
Saved and got more suitable size buying online instead of retail. Timely delivery. Would do again.


Save yourself some blog reading, it's a good cable
I have bought a Samsung 4065F to I have fried in orange county therefore as a monster of $70 2m 500 series of the cable only why the type has suggested it: "he is that what use in the country," (sure). Then they have gone to Time Warner and I have tradet in my old one scato it with high box it of definition and have shown to the type the cable. It has said, "it is right a cable, it acquires around," and it has added that they usually install using component cables and in effects it has given some to me. Then I have begun to entire read on the Internet approximately as cables of the monster they are a hoax and all and finally I have taken the cable behind and I have obtained $25 on the sale for $20. He was terrible! My son 16-year-old and my moglie could say immediately. I have tried the component cable and has helped rather with the sound, but candle to the monster has still not held one. I have measured and calculated only be necessary 1 tester of cable, so as to I have given back the little expensive cable of HDMI and have obtained to 1m a 700 series of the cable of the monster for the same price of 2m the 500 series. Of new, completely we are dazzle to you from the look (and the sound) of our Samsung 4065F. The 700 have not carried out at all in order to improve that the 500, perhaps but we are buying a sure future protection in case TW never eliminates 1080p marks to align them (hour is 720p, 1080i). Us they can outside be large cables here for a better price, but I pray just confidence your eyes and ears and too much do not waste the blogs of Internet time of the reading.


Take the good with the bad
I bought two of these for my new Samsung 4071f HDTV, and Panasonic blu ray player. Put one on the HDTV that worked great, but when I plugged the blu ray one in, the player gave me a code for a defective HDMI cable. The screen would flicker randomly.

I thought for sure that there would be no problems buying a product like this online, but now I'm not so sure.


Great cable, but not worth the $$$
It is large cable, but not worthy $$.>I have bought this and I compare it to the monoprice cable (


Worth the money
This cable is awesome. I'm using it for my PS3 to watch Blu-Ray movies and play games on my Vizio 1080p HDTV. Picture is way more sharper and brighter with this cable than with ordinary HDMI cable I have. A bit pricey, but if you want the best this is it. Would definitely recommend it to my friends.


Works Great
I used this to run through a wall form LCD to Tuner and so far it works Fantastic


Just a terrible example of ripping off customers.
A lot recently, I have bought a buy of the television in the best one of the cases. They do not sell the $5 and $10 cables that of HDMI found to have fried or on Amazon, so as to I have gone ahead and I have bought this cable. I have thought that you did not occupy to me of, after that all I spessero the migliaia on the TV, but have continued to nagging. Therefore I have bought a cable of $2 HDMI from Amazon (HDMI search and of you it will see some Marches). My TV input has gemellati of HDMI, so as to I have connected this cable and the cable of the monster, the casino over put Royale and launch between cables in order to see that what the difference was. Not there was absolutely difference. Neanche one. I have calculated that the image would be po' a more cutting or pulitore of colors, but you could put a gun to my head and I could not dirvi which it was which. And googled HDMI and I have learned that if your video and marks them audio works at all, therefore marks is transporting correctly them. Not there is earth centers them with HDMI. The better cables incrementally do not improve the quality of the image! Why? Since the HDMI is digita them and it is much difficult one to storcere a 1 in 0. In fact, it is technically impossible without distortion or breakdown total of marks them. The breakdown in marks is caused them from the processor or the cables that are too much long. Or more probable, misconfigured the systems. With it marks them numerical, the cables have a job the much easiest one. Images if you had to read a book from 100 yarde via? That one is analog. Images the code Vices of the reading from a battery 100yards via (and you knows the things of the vices)? That one is digita them. Therefore buying this cable, you are making sure yourselves iete making sure that if your length of cable is to the end, or if your house obtains the blow from a EMP, than this cable of the monster proteggerà those marks them numerical a little more best of the little expensive cable enough. Why satisfied the $2 and do not see if that kind of assurance is necessary? After all, if the $2 systems of the cable, it is not going to obtain more best. It is repulsive that the buy better sell only extremely expensive cables. They are happy Amazon me dò the choice. It is not ingenuous! It gives to the little expensive cable a test! One word of the attention: if you demand HDMI 1.3a, obtains a compatible cable. For $15 bucks, you are moneies a lot of saving calm. You can control your handbook in order to see if your audio quality is therefore high that you have need of cables 1.3a. One or the other sense, not is reason to obtain this horribly overpriced the cable. The entered moneies save the latta one in the systems that transcodificano more best marks them numerical. That one is where the real improvement in the image and the audio must be found!


MONSTER WORTH IT!!
I just got these cables on Nov27/07 and they work great I use it for my ps3 and my xbox 360. They Picture is awsome. i bought some other hdmi cables on amazon and my 360 wouldnt even go to 1080p. It would only stay on 1080i. This Cable is playing on a 42in Hitachi. The price is high but monster gives you life time warrnty on the cable. Dont get fooled by those cheap prices stick with monster you will get your moneys worth!!!!


New HDTV and you don't have this yet?
Look, sure you can try to figure out which off brand cable equals this cable and saves you money but do you really have the time ( time is money )and can you be sure? This cable blew my inexpensive cable away and you are paying for future potential this cable is built to deliver. very important if you need to fish this inside walls such as above a fireplace.

A great cable, worth every penny in peace of mind and will kick your but with performance.


satisfied
the product really good, quality improved of the image on mine 1080p LCD has confronted to the little expensive price of cables..cheap... equally more little expensive from all the places that I have verified


In a word - OVERPRICED
Job for a company that produces the equipment for the industry of Broaband. One of our series of products is cables of HDTV A/V. They are high-quality comparable to cables of the monster; fact to the champions a lot exacting with the material prizes. We sell them for the profit to approximately $20 -- and are even 3 feet more than length of the version of the monster (confronted to the format of the 1 tester). People the necessity to become account that they are paying too much! Sure, monster ago a good cable, no is denying that one here. Deserving itself of an appraisal of 5 stars for that what is. But it is not worthy that what is being loaded. Less 3 stars. It watches it this sense. When the cables of the monster bought, 30% of that what paid you are the remaining cable and satisfied 70% mark it and the hype that ton of moneies in the introduction goes with it (must around spend one on the market and paid it) purchases. It reads on it in tribunes online. There are cables of the roba of refusal towards the outside here so as to that they are prudent, but that they do not believe that you must pay an arm and piedino a cable of quality. HDMI is a digital disposition them, 1s just and a 0s. Or will work or and "the quality" of the cable will not make it or it will not break off. It sees I pray the argument here under -- "HDMI 101" of the product.


Outstanding Monster Cable



Works well with 1080p
I am using this for HD DVD, image and the sound is perfect! The cables of the monster are all that it uses in my domestic theatre, worthy every penny!
