Kain Posted October 22, 2002 Share Posted October 22, 2002 I'll probably be getting the MCX-1s or MCX-2s for the RF-7s, but since Monster Cable has speaker cables for center speakers, my question is that should I just get another MCX-1 or MCX-2 for the RC-7 or get the MCX-1 or MCX-2 Center Speaker cable?

DrPyro Posted October 22, 2002 Share Posted October 22, 2002 I would just get the same as you do for the Front speakers....makes life simple.... -Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kain Posted October 22, 2002 Author Share Posted October 22, 2002 Really? But I thought that the speaker cable that was "designed" for a center speaker would be better for a center speaker, no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boa12 Posted October 22, 2002 Share Posted October 22, 2002 Kain, i may be sticking my neck out here, but i have to say that center speaker cable thing is all hype. but if its the same cost & makes you feel better, go for it. though my guess is it costs more, no?

skonopa Posted October 22, 2002 Share Posted October 22, 2002 Actually the only difference between the speaker cable for the center and the mains is that the center is sold as a single (thus it should be about half the cost) and the cable for the mains are sold in pairs. If you bought the cable sold for the mains for the center, you'll be buying an extra cable that you may not need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kain Posted October 23, 2002 Author Share Posted October 23, 2002 Thanks guys. I have one more question regarding cables: Is the optical cable that connects from the DVD player to the A/V receiver called a "Toslink" cable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kain Posted October 23, 2002 Author Share Posted October 23, 2002 ...and one more question. Would you get the MonsterBass 400 Subwoofer cable or the M Series Bass 500 cable? Both cables cost the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boa12 Posted October 23, 2002 Share Posted October 23, 2002 "Actually the only difference between the speaker cable for the center and the mains is that the center is sold as a single (thus it should be about half the cost) " skop, yeah that makes sense. why didn't i see thru that? though i have a feeling knowing monster its more than 1/2 the cost of a pair. if I remember right about $10 more than 1/2. kain, yes optical is aka toslink. & i have the MB 400 but don't know the other. know the 400 is double shielded w/ a solid core. if the M is better like triple shielded get it. if the M is the same flip a coin.

Kain Posted October 24, 2002 Author Share Posted October 24, 2002 Do you think the MonsterBass 400 is worth the extra cost? To see the difference just compare the cables on the Monster Cable website. Secondly, I can't find any details on the Monster Cable M Series 550 subwoofer cable. Does anyone have any details? How does it compare to the MonsterBass 400?
