60. I was wondering how much of a difference monster speaker wire XP makes a difference. It was like $35 for 50 ft at best buy, which means it will prob cost close to $100 to wire my system when i hook it up. als the guy at best buy was shilling a Monster Digital Fiber Optic Cable and Monster Bass 300 for the subwoofer.
I do find the construction quite sturdy. But, their "turbine" connectors are way too snug, are a real chore to connect and remove, and, as a result, damaged my RCA outs on an old amp. I do not use Monster. The Audioquest cables I have used in the past, "Topaz", I think, made the music sound very bright and compressed.
Obsolete infrastructure has rapidly diminishing value. More coax cables in your home increase the fire load, for what it is worth. Best solution is always conduits or chases that can be used for a properly managed cabling plant. Plaster/drywall work is reasonably inexpensive for short hops in a home.
I know most consider Monster Cable to be over-hyped and overpriced & I tend to agree. However, a local audio/video store is going out of business and all
