Monster Cable Monster Cable DVI400-2M 2 Meter DVI Cable DVI Cables

Everything from the ball game to action movies to your video games looks better in high-definition. Are you getting the most out of your HDTV though? For high definition all-digital video to look its best, the data must be transferred from your set top box or DVD player to your HD display in pure digital form. Image quality is compromised when you use analog video cable! Even high-resolution component video is still an analog connection! For component video or other analog cables to do their job, your HDTV tuner or other digital source must convert video data from the digital domain to analog, then back to digital. This conversion process can cause high-frequency attenuation, and loss of resolution and detail.Monster's DVI400 cable is a pure digital high bandwidth video interface: what you see on your screen is exactly what was digitally transmitted. DVI400 is designed to support the high bandwidth demands from your set top box to the HDTV display. This cable supports up to 24-bit digital RGB data behind each pixel for the highest quality image. You can enjoy a sharp picture with incredible detail and vibrant, natural colors, even if you� re forced to use long cable runs.You made a sound investment in your digital source material (DVD/HDTV) and digital display device (Plasma/High Definition). Why limit the performance of these technologies by connecting them with less than the highest quality digital interface? Monster DVI400 helps you get the best performance possible!

  Strengths: Everything is very clean and rich viewing on my Gateway FPD2185W 21 LCD monitor!

  Weaknesses:None..........

  Overall Evaluation: This DVI-D cable is a must have if you have a DVI connection on your graphic card and LCD monitor! You will see a major difference in colors and print and resolution size that will make you run and tell a friend! This is money that is well spent, I highly reccomend!

  Strengths: Supplies great DVI cable quality video to your HDTV. Supposedly the best on the market.

  Weaknesses:Pricey. Nominal video improvement.

  Overall Evaluation: I bought this cable to attach the HTPC to my 32" LCD Syntax Olevia. When I upgraded the video connection from the usual 15 pin VGA connection to a generic DVI (it came with an old LCD monitor of mine) cable, I could clearly see the picture becoming more saturated / colorful without changing any other settings. Upgrading further from my generic DVI cable to this one, however, it was difficult to see the improvement. I know BestBuy has a Monster Cable demo setup which shows the same movie on 2 same TVs played from the same DVD player, with only the cables being different. There it's very easy to see the difference, but now I'm suspicious about their setup. Furthermore, I'm sure with some more HDTV recalibration, I would've achieved the same results. Therefore at $100 for a 6.6' video cable, I wouldn't recommend the purchase unless you have cash to spare.

  Strengths: Solidly built. Good connectors with big thumb tightners.

  Weaknesses:None I see

  Overall Evaluation: I bought this cable and now I am swapping out the cable box, the new one has a HDMI interface for which I already have a convertor cable I bought 6 months ago. I guess this one will sit around until I have a HD Dvd player and a DVI port switch.

  Strengths: It works, get a nice HD picture

  Weaknesses:None specifically

  Overall Evaluation: I'm not impressed with DVI. I originally hooked up my HD cable box with the component-color cable that was supplied by Cablevision, and was totally impressed by HDTV. Changed over to the DVI400 cable and I haven't seen any major improvement. I have a relatively good eye for details, having had photgraphy for a hobby for the last 38 years, and I just haven't seen the reason for all the raving over DVI. Maybe after I experience it for a while, it'll come to me. But I've watched some shows in HD and there's no noticable difference.

  Strengths: Excellent high definition picture

  Weaknesses:Seems only slightly better than component video cables

  Overall Evaluation: I had component video cables for my high definition satellite connection. I decided to upgrade to this DVI cable to enhance the already great high definition picture. It's hard to tell the difference, but it gives me peace of mind that I have the best connection possible for my HDTV.
