Strengths: built well
Weaknesses: expensive
Summary: If you are an audio/video-phile you may want to invest in these cables. You can see some difference in the picture from the Microsoft provided component cables. The audio is good, though I can't tell a difference from the optical connection with the Microsoft cable. For the price, this is only worth it if you have a nice big screen HDTV. Otherwise, you may not see much of a difference in picture quality.

3 Star ReviewA Monstrous Price for Enhanced Picture & Sound
Strengths: Quality build; improves on the official Xbox 360 HD cable
Weaknesses: Expensive; no analog audio
Summary: While I acquired this cable dirt cheap (relatively speaking) and have noticed marginal visual improvement over the HD cable that's included with the premium Xbox 360, I wouldn't recommend paying full price for it. The increase in video fidelity is slight, and the digital audio does not sound any clearer through this cable than it does through the official one. Actually, the one quirk with this cable is it does not have plugs for analog audio, meaning a digital A/V receiver is an absolute requirement. It's definitely a quality cable, just not worth the outrageous price for the minor visual upgrade over Microsoft's official Xbox 360 HD cable.

    Product Experience:
    1 Months
Strengths: MONSTER QUALITY
Weaknesses: HAS NO 2-CHANNEL ANALOG RCA CONNECTORS, ONLY OPTICAL CABLE.
Summary: It only has an optical connector to reproduce sound, so you must have a 5.1 decoder. The optical cable does not plug directly into the XBOX end of the cable, but rather has a mini jack adapter making the connection a little weak. Other than that it'll give you the best picture and sound money can buy.
