I have an opinion, and i'm an electrical engineer by training. It's all a fraud. You dont see people selling gold plated SCSI cables to connect your hard drives, because the concept is just stupid. But if you tell someone that a gold plated RCA cable is going to transmit their SPDIF info "faster" or "better" or "with a richer sound", they just might believe it. Oh, and btw- to sell monster cable you have to agree to not sell them below a certain price. A $100 run of cable costs the dealer about 6 bucks when they buy from Monster. It's the highest margin item in any electronics store. It's also the biggest fraud. =============== yes; though I don't have firm opinions on all this "expensive cable" stuff. Good connections and short cable runs are probably 99%, imo...
