Virbrant colors and sharpness.

I have to purchase another one for my DVD player (currently using Monster S-video 3). Align your pins carefully (not a weakness just an observation).

Purchased the second M1000, after using the first connection for my LCD projector to the receiver, I then connected the second M1000 to the Direct TV Box (also coming through my reciever), and I could see a significant difference. The picture was much sharper and colors were more vibrant (I was using Monster S-Video 3). I had also heard that this cable is the only S-video cable rated via Scientific testing (forgot the specifics)for negative signal loss, including long runs (LCD projector run is 26 feet). I highly recommend this cable without reservation.

It is an S-video cable, which is much, much better than coax.

Poor construction quality. The ends of the cables are flimsy. Should be better for the price.

Good S-video cable.

Replacement for Monster Video Series 2 connecting following components:

Pioneer Elite DVL-90 DVD/LD Player
Denon LA-3500 LD Player
Sony SLV-R5UC SVHS
RF Systems RC-8-AVM A/V switch

0.5 M lengths interconnect components to high-end A/V switch.

I noticed a substantial improvement in sharpness and detail, with particularly deep blacks especially notable with black and white DVDs and LDs. Considering that I almost payed twice the price for other cables, I feel that my expectations were met. Unlike the reviewer who found performance/value low, IMHO these are an exceptional buy. Recommended.

Excellent quality color separation and clarity.

Price

This cable is a huge step above in-box cables. Since I was unfamiliar with Monster and the setting up of components, I took a chance and have not regretted paying the price. The picture clarity and definition in color is unbelievable. I regret not knowing the quality of picture I've missed all these years. As I continue to set up my own home theatre system, I will continue to use Monster cabling.

I hate s-video as a connection. With my equipment, I cannot always get good access when changing cables, and with the stupid pin configurations of s connectors, if you do not put them in perfectly, the pins are susceptible to getting wrecked. It's happened before with a close out Audioquest cable, and with 2!! of the Monster M1000's. At $80 a pop, the Monsters are not cheap. Not to pick on Monster, but it will be a long time before I buy a monster cable again.

High price, but then again you pay for Monster quality

I use this cable because my Philips widescreen tv doesnt support rgb.
I always used Monster cable and was very satisfied with its performance. I wanted a very a good sv-cable and asked the retailer if I could try a couple of cables. The monster immediatly catched my eye because of its strong construction(you must be a retard if you can bend those pins, just read the reviews above).
I was very satisfied with the perfomance, good colours and great clearity also I noticed detail improvement.
This is another great cable from Monster and I know I will use it untill I will lay my hands on a CRT.
Untill then I will enjoy this cable.

flimsy pins? man, i guess high-tech stuff isn't good in low-tech hands. how do you bend an s-cable pin? i guess by trying to force it in without alignment. anyway, this cable is solid and worth every cent. i noticed a BIG difference in picture quality. almost like people are outlined, its that good. well, wouldn't buy any other product. i now own 4 of these cables. 3 from components to receiver and 1 from receiver to tv. xbox, dvd, dss to receiver.

price

I bought this product a long time about, about 2 years ago after I got my DVD player. I spent 300 bucks on the DVD player I wasn't going to hook it up with cheap cable. I found this cable in about 4 meters for $90 bucks plus shipping from a place on the net. I got it, hooked it up and the quality of it was nothing more then fabulous. The color was beautiful and accurate. It also sharpened the picture, with composite video cables there tends to be a softening of the picture. This made the picture look natural and beautiful, sheer excellence. Monster Cable is known to be able to extend long distances with they're cables with no degradation, that's why I picked up this cable. Plus I can brag and say I have a $90 dollar cable in my system. When the receiver only cost less then 300. Hehe.

Many - Poor Picture, Bad Color Sturation, Pins don't lock tight, etc.

My experience with most monster products has not been favorable. On a positive note I can say that this cable has not fallen appart like my monster optical cable. The colors from this cable are terrible, there is notable distortion. For only $15 I replaced the cable with an Acoustic Research cable and got much better results, I'm considering upgrading to the "Straight Wire Silver S S-Video Cable" since the review have been very positive.

In conclusion, this mass produced over priced cable is a piece of junk. Hopefully, I can return it for credit at my audio dealer.
