| Are the Monster cables for car worth the money. Are they the best or is there something better ?

| Monster Cable is really nice stuff, I've only ever seen 1 person have a problem with them.
Are they worth the price...if the rest of your system is up to par...yes they are. |

It's kindof dumb, we use all this high end stuff and yeah on the computer test equipment you can see the difference on the screen with slightly less ripple or a lower noise floor, but do you think any of us can hear it? HELL NO! We've tried. | Words to live by [img]smile.gif[/img]

| The statement from Big Tom is very open-ended. They don't sound better than...??? Than what?
Another problem, they used solder, a relatively crappy conductor, good high-end cables should be welded.
And last but not least, is the gear they are using up to the challenge? Most systems aren't. |
