<< Vpham97: Are you crazy? >>
No, I'm just cautious and sensible. I have jump on too many thing in the past and are regretting it. I'm now older, wiser, and more sensible.
Yeah, right..
I still jump on thing, I just jump slower.
<< Hell, after downgrading my gear (having $5000 of stereo gear finally struck me as silly) >>
Same here, I spent over $3K on Car Audio. The cable to my subwoofer slip off, I didn't even bother to connect it back(it's been 4 months now.) All that heavy bass music is finally getting boring to me. Get a good car speaker & a good cd player and you won't need big subwoofer.
<< If you have a "regular" system, $10-15 is all you need to spend on 3-6 foot RCA cables. >>
Walmart B&m's electronic department has some big & heavy gauge GOLD connector cable for $15. It's in a blue package, I think they it monster cable on the box also(w/ no connection to Monster Cable company.) I returned mine b/c the connector is too lose and kept on slipping off.
<< One other thing, if you are spending $$$ on home A/V you shouldn't skimp on the cable because you may lose some of the signal. >>
Don't let those sellman at the store fool you. You are going spend a lot of money if you are making everything Monster Cable. Monster Cable has better come down in it prices if they want us to respect them. If you are spending that much money on Monster, get a better Stereo Receiver first, then get some good cable.
<< As someone with $450 of cable connecting my stereo system, let me just throw in my $0.02, it's not really worth it. Not for short runs of RCA cable anyway. >>
That's right, if you've got a decent cable, how much signal do think is being lost in 3 feets.
If you want to get into optical cable
We don't need to spend money on that either. You break too easy anyway. Only go for it if you don't already have regular cable.
