Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Monster MC700HD-2M High Speed HDTV HDMI Cable (2 meters)

Customer Review: Monstrously inflated price, not justified by functionality
Summary: 1 Stars

Some salesperson insisted that I bought one of these "for the quality". "It's worth every penny" he said. "Try it and you will see" he said. So, I did, after making sure that the store was going to allow me to return it for a cash refund, no questions asked.

I took this super-expensive wire home, I replaced the existing free HDMI wire that came with the satellite receiver and was connecting it to the TV with the Monster and... I saw no difference. Then, I unplugged the five-dollar HDMI wire that connected my Blu-ray player to the TV and plugged the Monster in its place and... I saw no difference. I returned this item to the store and decided to keep using my super-cheap or free HDMI cables because there is absolutely no difference between a five-dollar wire or a cheap-looking free wire that comes with some device that you buy and this expensive cable.

HDMI is all-digital for both sound and picture. As such, it either works or it doesn't. There's really nothing in-between. If a claim is made that thd Monster is 'more reliable' or that it 'lasts longer', I can't see how such claim can be backed - does the fifty-dollar cable last 10 times longer than than the five-dollar cable? I've been using inexpensive HDMI cables for 1-2 years already and none of them has failed me yet. As for 'the looks', they are not important? I plug my cables in the back of things and, hopefully, I don't need to see them very often.

By the way, I don't challenge the claim of high quality for this cable. It looks well built. However, it is quality not needed and, in my view, not worth paying for. The way most of us use cables is: we plug them at the back of our electronic boxes and, if they work on day one they are likely to work in the exact same fashion on day 1000 because they are not going to be subjected to any physical or thermal stress and the materials used to build them are not degradable. While 'quality' was important for analog cables cable where a good quality cable make all the difference in the world, the digital wires either transmit the digits or they don't. If they do, they all work the same, the $1 HDMI cable gives you the exact same 'performance' the $100, gold-plated cable does.

The claims made that these expensive wires allow more Gigabytes of data to pass through may be true but they are irrelevant. The HDMI is a published standard and there is a minimum data throughput that must be supported. If it is, then the device is HDMI compliant. If some cable exceeds the specified throughput, it's nice but it's irrelevant because no electronic component that's HDMI compliant would attempt to push more bytes through the wire than the standard specifies because if they did, they'd violate the specs and would not sell very well. If your electronic component had an HDMI port that called for an HDMI cable that exceeded the HDMI published standards, then it would no longer be called an HDMI port but a proprietary, non-standard solution.

The Monster HDMI Difference
While it is true that HDMI is a digital connection, not all cables are the same. Any cable used must not only pass the signal; it must maintain he signal with high-speed especially when accessing all of the advanced formats that are available from sources such as a Blu-Ray disc. Other HDMI cables do not provide protection from bends necessary for tight installation, or provide advanced manufacturing techniques and materials for proper terminations to eliminate noise. Only cables designed to eliminate noise and constructed with the highest standards to protect against installation methods will produce the highest definition audio and video.
Monster has been a leader in the HDMI connectivity from the beginning, working with HDMI LLC to educate consumers on the benefits and performance aspects of the cables. With Monster Advanced for HDMI design and construction for the highest level of HDMI performance is guaranteed, thanks to greater cable capacity for support of 12-bit, 14-bit, or even 16-bit color (Deep Color) available from advanced HD sources and displays
Every Monster Ultra-High Speed rated cable is manufactured with 24K contacts for maximum signal transfer and ultra-low distortion at the point of connection, silver-content soldering, connecting the HDMI cable's conductors to the connector's internal connection pins lowers resistance and maximizes digital signal transfer. Additionally, Monster Advanced for HDMI cables feature a heavy-duty internal metal shell which provides full shielding of the internal conductor wiring routed inside the connector. This provides an extra defense against interference that can enter at the connector can degrade the digital signal causing a poor image or drop-outs in the audio. This provides an advantage in performance not found in other HDMI cables. Many HDMI cables only feature metal at the connection point. Inside the connector, a thin plastic shield typically separates the molded or metal connector body from the wiring inside. This type of construction allows for damage to the conductor wiring caused during installation or everyday use to needlessly expose the stream bit to noise.

These advanced design and construction features provide for the Highest Definition possible for the full entertainment experience today and into the future.
