I just got my first HD television for Christmas and I wanted to go right out and get a HDMI cable to enjoy my stellar HD picture. I was appalled at the prices at circuit city and best buy for HDMI cables. The cheapest one i could find was $40. In the past i have alway paid less when buying online but a $34 price different is horrendous. These stores are simply gouging the ignorant public who don't know any better. I left the store disappointed and went on monprice.com and bought my cable for $6 plus shipping.

I feel that I must spread the word to people who think that paying $80 for the same cable is going to get them a better picture, is just wrong. I'm sure these cables provide extra protection but the extra protection is so small it can't even be measured with today's technology. I have found an in depth article from the guys over at gizmodo describing this rip off and tested comparable cables at monoprice. Please read these articles and spread the word for any new HDTV owner.

This quote from gizmodo pretty much sums up the article "The only people who should buy Monster cable are people who light cigars with Benjamins. Fortunately for Monster, there are plenty of those people. They're not even suckers, they are just rich as hell, and want the best. This testing did not prove that Monster is not the best. It just proved that the best is, for the most part, unnecessary." 

The cables that i bought are not the same cables that they tested, i purchased the cheapest cables. From my experience my picture is just as good as the high quality ones given to me from Verizon FIOS technicians. We tested this fact on a 50 Panasonic plasma playing xbox 360 halo 3 and between 3 people we couldn't tell the difference.
