Do you guys think it would be a worthwhile investment? And if so does anyone have a good suggestion on brands of HDMI cables?
Get the cheapest HDMI cables you can find.

Yes, those Monster cables are a SCAM.

Besides, the people running the company are real assholes.

Quote:
According to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and court records, Monster Cable has gone after other notable monsters:

-- Walt Disney Co., which distributed Pixar Animation Studios' hit film "Monsters, Inc.''

-- Bally Gaming International Inc. for its Monster Slots.

-- Hansen Beverage Co. for a Monster Energy drink.

-- The Chicago Bears, whose nickname is "Monsters of the Midway.''

In most cases, Monster Cable has been able to work out a settlement or nominal licensing agreement, Tognotti said.

Wow that's a crazy price. I know cables are dirt cheap in materials, but 3 bucks and change for a HDMI cable, that's unreal. Nice find!

I love monoprice. They have every cable I pretty much could ever need for my home gadgets. I picked up a gender changer for a VGA plug and some PS2 cord extensions. Grand total was like $6 after shipping. Radio Shack wanted $25 for the lot.
