I just recently bought a sub-woofer and I spent a good deal of time searching for an interconnect. The interconnects I looked at ranged from ridiculously over-priced to questionably cheap. I knew I wanted it to be THX certified and of a length that would allow me some freedom of sub-woofer placement. This interconnect provided both at a very reasonable price. I must say after installing my subwoofer that this cable was a perfect choice.
Some might say that the cost reflects a cables ability to provide good sound. Wrong. This is just as good as those 70 dollar interconnects. I do buy monster cable for most of my home theatre needs, but I do not buy into some of the hype surrounding Monster cable and their more expensive cables.
Why only 4 and not 5 stars. I did not like the way the cable was packaged. The cable was folded down the middle and now the center of the cable has a crook in it. I would have perfered it to be wound around a plastic spool to avoid folding of the cable.
Getting past that, its a good interconnect that produces great sound.
Good Stuff
These THX cables are everything you could/would expect from a high quality sub cable. Good stuff.
EDIT: I forgot to mention...the most thorough review here mentions the only downside being the way this cable is packed. I was distinctly worried about this when I put my order in. However, when the package came, I noticed the cable was, in fact, wrapped around a plastic spool, without any kinks or bends. Either the reviewer was mistaken, or Monster changed its packaging since he posted. Either way, my original review/rating remains...quality cable with ample length and a great price.
Working great!
Having not tried other subwoofer cables, I have nothing to compare it too. I can say it sounds like my sub is getting a good connection and sounds great. Cables and speaker wire is an area of great debate - $$ vs quality. So, I've always taken the middle road and purchased medium priced cables snd speaker wire and been happy with the results.
Good Cable
Does what it's supposed to do. I really don't have a good way to objectively rate this cable, but I don't notice any interference with the sub woofer it is used with.
Does what it supposed to do
Good cable for the price. I don't know whether it makes my sub sound better than any other cable but it does the job. Fast delivery, came about the same time as the Polk Audio 12" sub came, and it compliments the sub indeed.
