Monoprice HDMI cables - made ok but bested by Wireworld

Posted by Ned on October 11, 2010 at 16:29:18:
I recently posted a reply someplace on Audioasylum that I also have used the Monoprice HDMI cables and thought they were fine. Until I tried the Wireworld Starlight 5.2 HDMI cable - BIG IMPROVEMENT. Colors were richer, detail noticeably improved, holographic depth of the picture was much better. Even the sound got louder by some 20% or so and was improved also. I used the WW on the cable box and Blu-ray player to the TV.

While the Monoprice is well made, the critical area for an HDMI cable is the termination and the Wireworld is miles ahead - massive solid plug.

Of course, one would hope there would be an improvement given the difference in price: Wireworld lists for $250 for 2m but is available now for $95-99 because the new models came out.

My friend also bought the WW and noticed a nice improvement, though not as much as I did with my system and TV.
