Digital camera reviews of Monster HDMI-400 400 Series HDTV HDMI Cable (2 meters)Digital camera Review: A must! Summary: 5 Stars
Don't skip this cable! You are wasting money on HDMI equipment if you don't hook it up correctly. I used component connections while I waited for this cable to arrive, and I was blown away by the difference it made when it came. Now I have a set of brand new Monster component cables gathering dust in my closet.
Digital camera Review: Absolute Rip Off - There are much more affordable cables that work equally well Summary: 1 Stars
Don't buy into the hype the sales people at Big Box stores or Monster feeds you. Folks, there is no need to spend this over inflated price on an HDMI cable.
There is an article in NY Times on June 10, 2009 about how to tweak your HDTV to make it perform at its best. The article specifically advises readers not to be tempted to spend too much on cables. It also quotes industry expert Joe Kane. His advice: "Cheap cables that cost 75 cents per foot work as well as those that cost $100 per foot," said Mr. Kane. "With the latest HDMI cables, if you see a picture and hear the sound, you know it works."
Digital camera Review: An Easy To Use Addition To The Monster Cable Family Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this cable to connect a television with an HDMI input to a Series 3 TiVo. The cable is flexible and plugs in easily. This cable also unplugs easily, but doesn't accidently disconnect when tugged on. I purchased this item directly from Amazon, and it arrived in the usual Monster bubble plastic. The bubble plastic is difficult to open at best. As far as I could tell, the video quality was compareable to the HDMI cable provided by TiVo. Overall, if you are reading this to determine if you should spend the money on this Monster cable instead of using the cable provided by your cable service or TiVo, then I would say stick with your existing cable until it fails you. If the price is no obstacle and you want an easy to use cable, then this may be the one for you.
Digital camera Review: Are you really stupid and have way too much money laying around? Summary: 5 Stars
Are you incredibly stupid and have so much money laying around you just don't know what to do with it? if so these cables are for you (and also if so, please contact me, I have a few bridges I would love to sell you).
If you are one of those uncommon people who like value in your purchases, you might want to try a cheaper cable. But if you are the fun and adventurous type who likes wiping their butt with one hundred dollar bills, these cables should not be missed.
Digital camera Review: Be an educated consumer! You don't have to spend a lot for *digital* cables Summary: 1 Stars
You don't have to spend a fortune on expensive cables when you are dealing with digital signals. Keep in mind that all digital interfaces have error correction built into them. Did you know the internal components of consumer electronics are connected with tin and nickel? There's no gold inside! So there's no need for oxygen-free, gold tipped, multi sheilded, super mega supreme cables. If you don't believe me, buy this cable and a no-name cheapie. Compare them for yourself -- you will see no difference.
With analog signals, a good quality cable may make a difference (although the difference is usually only visible on an oscilloscope).
