j-malotky Posted October 14, 2002 Share Posted October 14, 2002 The only bettercable I have is the interconnect that came with my SVS Ultra, S-1000 combo from SVS. It seems to be just fine. There are a lot of cable companies out there that have a better product than "monster" and comparable prices. I purchased cobalt cable interconnects for my latest project. www.cobaltcable.com. I am very happy with them. They were basically the same price as Monster, but better quality. JM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL Posted October 15, 2002 Share Posted October 15, 2002 Might I suggest a cheaper but competent alternative: http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/pshowdetl.cfm?&DID=7&Partnumber=189-132 Or, like I've suggested before, make your own using: http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/pshowdetl.cfm?&DID=7&Partnumber=109-120 http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/pshowdetl.cfm?&DID=7&Partnumber=092-112 or http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/pshowdetl.cfm?&DID=7&Partnumber=093-511 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malev Posted October 16, 2002 Share Posted October 16, 2002 I prefer good looking cable. I like to look at the back of my receiver, and see big, fat, good looking cable and pat myself on the back for having such good looking cable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheEAR Posted October 18, 2002 Share Posted October 18, 2002 About the better product them Monster,it depends what Monster Cable series.I dont know Better Cable or SoSO Cables.I know Monster,Cardas,Transparent,MIT,Tributairies,Canare,UltraLink,AudioQuest and Kimber.If you take the basic Monster Cable I agree you can have better for less(UltraLink for example). If you take the M series or Sigma the ME TOO cables are in no way better,they are cheaper.I have a good few M series cables and interconects and they compare well to even the High-End from Cardas(GoldenCross),Kimber(Select) and a few others. To hear sound quality improving you have to have at least high resolution speakers and transparent components.In most cases it will be the I HATE MONSTER placebo effect.What ever makes the owner happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
