We recently purchased a Samsung 46" 1080 HDTV, model #650, that the cable company had hooked up with regular component cables to receive digital and hi-def channels. We thought the picture quality was good. However, after connecting the Monster cable, which was a breeze, we noticed how much crisper the picture & color looked.

These cables are ahead of their time, i.e. current technology does not need the performance of these cables, but in the near future the difference will become much more apparent.

Crutchfield Customer Review The reviewer purchased this item from us, verified by the email address on the order. I have been to other people's houses before with nice HDTV setups but with average wiring. Their HDTV picture looked really good but it seemed to be just missing that little extra to make it great. So when I finally decided to take the plunge into HDTV, there was no way I was going to skimp on anything, or let anything short-change my large investment. So I decided to use 1000HD's to hook up my DirecTV HD-DVR receiver and my Sony S350 blu-ray player to my Sony Bravia 37XBR6. Let me tell you, the picture pops like no other HD picture I've seen anywhere else. Even when people come over that have HDTV setups of their own and they look at mine they remark about how great it looks. I can't honestly say it's got 100% to do with the cables, but when you see other people's home setups with what you would consider similar performing equipment and one of the major differences is 1000HD wiring vs. brand X wiring, and when they see your picture they like it better than theirs, I think it hints at the possibility that these cables ARE a difference maker. Everyone is free to spend as much or as little as they want and draw their own conclusions, but I think at least in my case, seeing is believing, and I'm a believer. 8 out of 24 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Crutchfield Customer Review The reviewer purchased this item from us, verified by the email address on the order. Monster cables are simply the best cables to hook up any electronics. I use Monster cables on my Home entertainment center and the sound and video are amazing. HDMI Cables are new to me so i didnt know one from another. My Direct TV Recievers came with HDMI Cables and the sound and picture quality wera good, But then i remembered what a great job Monster Cables did on other electronics. So i purchased the Monster HDMI Ultra high speed 1000 HD HDMI Cables , need i say more. These cables improved the sound and video to the next level. They are a little pricey but they were well worth every penny. 5 out of 12 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 WOW!!! Written By Scott, Ft Worth, TX on Wednesday, February 20, 2008 I used to think the same as everybody else, "It's a digital signal, you can't change 0's and 1's, so I am buying the cheapest cable I can find!" Well let me tell ya, it's not neccesarily about the digital signal but the speed of that signal. Think of it this way, remember dial-up internet service? Remember how it would take anywhere between 30 seconds and 30 minutes to load a page, and how one part of the page would load and then a picture, and so on? But now, with broadband internet the entire page comes up at once. Relate that to high-speed HDMI cables, the faster the digital signal can get to your HD TV, the better it will look. I previously owned a "Big Box" store brand HDMI, and it made 3 different HD TV's pixelate. Well, I no longer own that cable, and now have this one, and it is 200% better. As far as price goes, yeah its $100 for a cable that is slightly longer than your arm, but when buying a $2000 - $5000 HD TV, why skimp out on the cable? Also, with Monster's Lifetime Warranty and "Cable for Life" replacement policy, how can you lose? 24 out of 34 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?
