Negative Positive
Title: Yes, cables matter, but...
Review: There are better choices than Monster, look into Kimber or Audioquest cables. For the same price, they are considerably better than Monster. Monster has the lion's share of low-end (read:zip-cord) and entry level hi-fi cables, because of great marketing. Go to any chain store (e.g. Best Buy) and you'll see Monster for sale.Like most things in life, however, if you put a little effort into research you will find better choices, for similar prices. Make sure you buy from a place where you can return the item, however!In my first real eye-opener as to cable differences, I switched from Monster to Audioquest 4's (.. no terminators, just bare wire)and my _wife_ noticed improved sound (she didn't know I'd changed anything).
