$99 dollars for the exact same cable I got from Global Computer for
$6.95.


No wonder Best Buy is making money. :)


Blame Monster. They've successfully created an image, convincing many that
their cables are superior for everything that passes electrons. I "love"
seeing their audio interconnect cables with the little arrows indicating
the
"direction" of signal flow.

You're kidding right? Do they really have a direction arrow??!!

Yep. The "high-end", super deluxe, audiophile quality ones do. I have a
few that I bought just to try.
There are those that analyze such things and claim the interconnect cables
have been "corrected" for the change in characteristic impedance along the
length of the cable. I don't buy it because at audio frequencies, there is
not much electromagnetic lines of force being developed and the reactance of
the cable is virtually zero.
