Advanced network encompasses Monster's Magnetic Flux Tube® for maximum bass response.

10 ft. pair $2,500.00 pr.

12 ft. pair $3,000.00 pr.

5 ft. pair $1,250.00 pr.

8 ft. pair $2,000.00 pr.

Now that quality. Makes me wanna rush out and buy a few pairs. I'll rewire my front driver's side speaker with a 12ft. pair, and maybe in a few years I'll be able to afford another set for the right front speaker. Why MonsterCalbes rock -- posted image.

I did a test when I was in college with the audio society, and no one could tell a pair of $2800 Kimbers from the 12AWG zip cord. I quit worrying about it after that night Why MonsterCalbes rock -- posted image.

Kimber 8VS does look a helluva lot cooler than zip cord tho.

Those products exist because there are people who will buy them.

give me your money man, I'll make your car sound way better than those cables will and I'll treat you to a few rounds of beers.

I'm no expert, but I do work in the electronics field, I started in the Navy learning telecomm and some radar, I work with laser measurment equipment now. Again, I'm not the master of all that is electronic, but I know enough to look at those ads and laugh and laugh....someone has the right idea though, I'm laughing with them!

Check out another post about this, it got a little ugly, I may have taken things a little too far all in good fun, but dpaton had a great answer. In the end, it comes down to the installer and the quality of the equipment, wire is wire unless it is some seriously sh*tty wire.

These products exist becasue there are people out there who can, and do buy them. I mean hell if they can sell one pair of these cables, thats comparable to 100 regular cables sold. PeoIt just makes it obvious how discustingly rich some people in this country are...

Hey, it's all relative in the end. You keep what you earn and in defense of Bill Gates.... if you help develope the next operating system, you too can buy these cables . Why MonsterCalbes rock -- posted image.

One of my distributors called me and was trying to sell me some higher end power cable for car audio.He then proceeded to tell me about the"skinning" effect and multi-stranded cable.I began to laugh at him and tried to explain that it doesn't happen with direct current.He kept insisting that it did untill I told him that I also taught AC and DC theory at a local college.Then he told me not to tell other dealers cause it would kill his high margin sales.
