Those free cables that came in the box with your video components aren't even in the same league as Monster's Ultra Series THX 1000 interconnects! These cables don't just meet THX's exacting standards for cable construction they exceed them, so you know they'll deliver excellent signal transfer and long life. The picture from your DVD player, digital satellite system, or VCR will look clear and sharp. What sets Ultra Series THX 1000 cables apart? They each boast a silver-plated copper center conductor, to accurately handle video's wider-bandwidth signals and minimize signal loss. Heavy-duty metal connectors with 24-karat gold-plated contacts give you rugged, rock-solid, corrosion-resistant connections that won't shake loose accidentally. And high-density double shielding protects against interference from outside electromagnetic and radio frequency noise.
