Monster Cable MV2CV-2M
2008-10-24Product described accordingly. Best price found. Quick delivery. Have ordered from same vendor.
Situationally Great!!!
2008-04-04I understand that some people do not need this product. Personally I have to use a hub (switch box) for my components because I only have one HD input for my TV. I was experiencing serious signal loss due to the hub. As I replaced each wire with Monster Cables the picture was better until all wires were Monster and the picture was perfect. My signal loss consisted of lines that would roll up the screen...usually two at a time and they were just a slight shade lighter than everything else on the screen. You could only notice it when the picture on the TV was still or a close face shot...but aggravating nonetheless.
Bottom line - if you're experiencing signal loss this should fix your problem - otherwise you can probably stick with the cheap ones
Terrible price for no noticeable benefit over other decent component cables...
2007-12-26I grabbed these cables with the impression that Monster's advertising has some truth in it. I was expecting a brighter/clearer image on my big screen that what I was getting with some $20 (other brand) cables.
Guess what. I haven't seen any improvement yet aside from the money that I am missing. I tried these cables and the THX certified monster cables with no observable effects whatsoever.
Perhaps there is a noticeble difference between these and the dinky cables included with most DVD players (but the same can be said for the $20 cables that I was using).
Didn't do the job
2007-09-18I have a Vizio 42" plasma that was connect to my HD DVD and H20 Directv dish via an HDMI cable. My HDMI connection broke (long story)so I had these Monster component cables lying around and I connected them. These cable don't do the job. The picture now has lots of noise and grainy and is simply not as smooth as with a Acoustic Reasearch HDMI cable.
Monster Cables are a Rip Off
2007-09-17I compared a Monster Cable vs one the one from Phillips which costs less than half this. And guess what, no difference. That's right. They rip you off. And what's the purpose off a gold plated connection if the rest of the signal passes through a copper cable.
It irks me see the staff at BestBuy and Circuit City pitching Monster's $75 Component Cables and $120 HDMI cables at uneducated customers. There are cheaper and equally performing cables out there. Do your research and save some of your hard earned money.
By the way, be wary of all the glowing reviews you read on amazon for this product or for others as well. Recently I have been seeing a lot of positive reviews from anonymous reviewers or reviewers with only one review to their name.

Professional video camera
A Professional video camera (often called a Television camera even though the use has spread) is a high-end device for recording electronic moving images (as opposed to a movie camera, that records the images on film). Originally developed for use in television studios, they are now commonly used for corporate and educational videos, music videos, direct-to-video movies, etc.
There are two types of professional video cameras: High end portable, recording cameras (essentially, high-end camcorders) used for ENG and EFP image acquisition, and studio cameras which lack the recording capability of a camcorder, and are often fixed on studio pedestals. Portable professional cameras are generally much larger than consumer cameras and are designed to be carried on the shoulder.
Technology
It is common for professional cameras to split the incoming light into the three primary colors that humans are able to see, feeding each color into a separate pickup tube (in older cameras) or charge ...
Core 2 Duo Scaling
Laptop Scaling
Intel's Core 2 Duo is easily the best mobile processor on the market today, boasting sky-high performance and low power consumption. But which CPU is for you: the super expensive T7600, the bargain-priced T5500, or something in between?
This article will first take a look at the various versions of Core 2 Duo that Intel has to offer. We will compare Core 2 Duo clocked at four speed grades: 2.33GHz, 2.16GHz, 2GHz, and 1.83GHz in a variety of benchmarks and let you know how to get your best bang for the buck.
Note: We will refer to a Core 2 Duo “T7000�multiple times in this article. We were unable to get a Merom sample with 2MB L2 cache, thus we lowered the clock speed of our 4MB L2 model to 1.83GHz to perform near that of the T5600 (1.83GHz, 2MB L2 cache), resulting in our unofficial “T7000�nomenclature.
The Core 2 Duo Processor
Intel has two lines of Core 2 Duo processors: notebook and desktop. Core 2 Duo for notebooks is codenamed Merom, while Core ...
