TV picture is great with this cable. However, since buying it, I have read blogs on HDMI cables that say as long as they are to specs, you don't need to spend a fortune on Monster, just buy any $10 cable that is to engineering specs.

I purchased this cable as "refurbished". Exactly the same as the ones in the stores..only way cheaper. I have three different brands of HDMI cables on my HT equip. and really can't notice too much of a difference between any of them.

I'd thought my 74" Pioneer Kuro and Sony ES Blu-Ray player were impressive enough, but this cable gave me a whole new swagger. I let it flop on the TV stand so everyone can comment on how long and thick it is. It's great, too - all the extra bandwidth Monster designed into it allows it to extract the best image from all your blu-rays. It extracts so much information it will even pull extra movies from discs that aren't supposed to be there. It is so cash.

A very good cable, but unecessary for almost all applications except Blue-Ray DVD players. Low cost HDMI cables work just fine for all other applications. Don't waste your money.

Cables do Make a Difference

Sorry to burst other reviews; however, quality cables do make a difference. I have a 52" 1080 120HZ screen with an upper mid-range sound system. I replaced the recommend HDMI cables I purchased with the system that were rated for my system (one step down from these cables). I witnessed an immediate upgrade in the picture quality. I ran a side by side test for my neighbor and switched between cables and he even saw the difference. The 1000HD cables are great, just shop around for the best price. FYI, I do have an engineering degree and cable diameter, connector grade, and manufacturing methods can make a difference. It just depends on the application whether the upgrade in cabling is necessary. I would not buy this cable for a low to mid-grade system (720P, or screens with refresh rates less than 120HZ).
