The only things that are "high grade" about Monster cables and their 
competitors are the advertising hype and the price.  As in "a fool and 
his money are easily separated."  Stores LOVE crap like that because 
they are very high profit items, but they offer no real value.

Stick to cable from good manufacturers. Belden and Gepco are the good US 
mfrs, and there are dozens of no-name companies selling stuff with 
questionable construction and performance.  Canare is ok, but not great, 
and is overpriced.  West Penn is also a step down.
