Everything from the ball game to action movies to your video games looks better in high-definition. Are you getting the most out of your HDTV though? For high definition all-digital video to look its best, the data must be transferred from your set top box or DVD player to your HD display in pure digital form. Image quality is compromised when you use analog video cable! Even high-resolution component video is still an analog connection! For component video or other analog cables to do their job, your HDTV tuner or other digital source must convert video data from the digital domain to analog, then back to digital. This conversion process can cause high-frequency attenuation, and loss of resolution and detail.Monster's DVI400 cable is a pure digital high bandwidth video interface: what you see on your screen is exactly what was digitally transmitted. DVI400 is designed to support the high bandwidth demands from your set top box to the HDTV display. This cable supports up to 24-bit digital RGB data behind each pixel for the highest quality image. You can enjoy a sharp picture with incredible detail and vibrant, natural colors, even if you� re forced to use long cable runs.You made a sound investment in your digital source material (DVD/HDTV) and digital display device (Plasma/High Definition). Why limit the performance of these technologies by connecting them with less than the highest quality digital interface? Monster DVI400 helps you get the best performance possible! minimize

Nominal Improvement that costs a fortune

Started Mar 19, 2006

Strengths: Supplies great DVI cable quality video to your HDTV. Supposedly the best on the market.

Weaknesses: Pricey. Nominal video improvement.

I bought this cable to attach the HTPC to my 32" LCD Syntax Olevia. When I upgraded the video connection from the usual 15 pin VGA connection to a generic DVI (it came with an old LCD monitor of mine) cable, I could clearly see the picture becoming more saturated / colorful without changing any other settings.

Upgrading further from my generic DVI cable to this one, however, it was difficult to see the improvement. I know BestBuy has a Monster Cable demo setup which shows the same movie on 2 same TVs played from the same DVD player, with only the cables being different. There it's very easy to see the difference, but now I'm suspicious about their setup.

Furthermore, I'm sure with some more HDTV recalibration, I would've achieved the same results. Therefore at $100 for a 6.6' video cable, I wouldn't recommend the purchase unless you have cash to spare.

The main reason why you don't see a difference in the quality is because when it comes to digital video signals (or digital signals) there is no degrdation. It simply transmits on or off (1's and 0's). So basically as long as the signal gets across (pretty much any DVI cable that isn't really really really really cheaply made can do this) there is no degredation. This is the main reason why digital signals are better. Therefore paying a premium for a luxury DVI cable will yield practically NO benifit when it comes to picture quality.
