Re: HDMI 1.3a cables on Amazon for $9.99
Hmm...this is the first time I've heard that. Sounds reasonable at first, then I saw this one though.
At the tail end of that, they talk about monster suing Disney, among a whole other slew of companies, for using the word "monster" anywhere, as if they completely own the word now. Even if Monster is a small company (not saying they are or aren't) there are many cases where the little guy does try to extort the big guy for money, and based on that newscast this seems like one of them.

They are even cheaper on eBay. I got two 6' cables shipped for under $12. They work perfect.

Re: HDMI 1.3a cables on Amazon for $9.99
Whoever is behind all those numerous lawsuits @ Monster cable is a ****. The guy in the video is a **** as well.
I would never buy their overpriced crap in the first place, but after all this non sense I would do without rather than buy as much as an ink pen form them. |

Re: HDMI 1.3a cables on Amazon for $9.99
A sales guy at Best Buy tried to tell me that if I didn't buy Monster Cables, and only bought a generic HDMI cable, my tv would not output at 1080p, nor would I get the 120hz benefit from my set. I simply asked him, "Are you really that stupid, or are you just a shill? And, if you're just a shill, do people actually fall for that bull****?"

Re: HDMI 1.3a cables on Amazon for $9.99
I bought a couple 6 foot HDMI 1.3a certified cables from Mono Price and it was around $15 with shipping. I ordered them on a Friday night and they arrived at my house Monday morning. I will buy from them again.
Here are the cables I bought http://www.monoprice.com/products/pr...seq=1&format=2 |
