(More customer reviews)By now, you've all probably heard that Monster Cable is "overrrated" or "does very good marketing." Well, as a self-proclaimed audiophile, my first word of advice is that you must make sound quality determinations on your OWN - don't be strayed by others.
That being said, the Monster Cable THX Ultra 1000 series of speaker cables are simply superb. I purchased the highly acclaimed QED Anniversary XT speaker cables (with QED airlocs) from the UK after reviewing the WHATS HI FI magazines article and "Product of the Year" award. To say I was disappointed is an understatement. The Monster Cable ULT 1000 sounded significantly better than the QED's that cost nearly twice as much! The highs in the Monster Cable were clearly better and more pronounced in the Monster Cable and the bass sounded tighter and more full. Clean, clear, and detailed sound was apparent in both cables, but the range of sound was much more pronounced in the Monster Cable.
My recommendation is ONLY with respect to this speaker cable (1000 version). I cannot attest to any other Monster Cable product.
The only word of advice would be to purchase the Monster Cable 1000 WITH the banana plugs already attached. The newer Monster Cable speaker cable has this along with longer terminated ends (for more flexibility). The older version has shorter ends without banana ends - this has cause one cable I've owned to wear out due to twisting and movement of the wire.

This reduces the space between the conductors and reduces theinductance.
