 Pleasantly Surprised January 30, 2004

I added the Monster THX Speaker wire, along with THX connectors, out of curiosity to see if there would be any difference, at all, in sound quality. Much to my surprise there was a very noticable improvement in clarity and crispness on the highs when compared to the standard speaker wire I was using. I'm using an Onkyo TX-DS595 Receiver and Infinity HTS-20 speakers. This was an easy inexpensive and worthwhile improvement to my home theater.

I wanted to rewire my surround system and not have the wires all over the room, but the wires that came with the system weren't long enough, so I gave this a chance. I didn't really expect to hear a difference. Once I finished rewiring, I put the system on with a DVD (LOTR: Fellowship of the Ring) and was amazed that the system actually sounded better. I thought it was just me, so I called my wife and asked her to see if the speakers are working properly without telling her that I heard a difference. Her first comment was that the system sounds much better than before (I did buy the Monster Cable THX-GP 20-Pack Standard THX-Certified Gold-Plated Speaker Connectors with this, but I dont know if that makes a difference or not)
One of the best speaker wires! February 3, 2006

You can't go wrong with Monster's quality. No need to buy the "Ultra" or "Deluxe" versions which are way too expensive, this "Standard" version is really good too.
The main thing in speaker wires is the gauge (i.e. thickness). The thicker the wire the better it is. This is 16 gauge so it retains excellent sound quality even over long distances such as 40-50 feet from the Receiver.
Acoustics Research makes good 16 gauge wires too but they are hard to find. Monster is a bit expensive but due to its popularity is widely available and if you are lucky may find it on sale too!
Excellent February 10, 2007

I actually didn't buy this because of the Monster name brand, I bought this because it was the cheapest 100 ft. of 16 guage wire that I could find anywhere. It worked perfect too! It was a good length that setup my 5.1 surround system without a problem. Don't skip out on monster just because people say it is expensive. Sometimes it's the cheapest if you look around.
 Good, but not better January 11, 2007

quality of the wire excellent; thickness, etc. Good. Unfortunately, not manufactured with red metal or copper, Pos wire, and white metal Neg. Caused OVERLOAD problems while rigging new, center speaker. If I'd known, I wouldn't have bought it.
