It's not just Monster. Snake Oil cable companies are everywhere. It's
an industry.

Buy cables that look well made, so that they'll be reliable. Any other
characteristic is going to be irrelevant at typical home theatre system
lengths. Is your system "typical?" Do you have any really long runs?

If a salesman starts telling you how great a certain cable is, ask him
the capacitance per foot. You don't even need to know what it means,
because I guarantee he won't!
