| I was a little skeptical about this cable and monster in general. but the cable that microsoft gives you does component or composite which kind of bugged me. this cable is definitely higher quality. the difference in picture quality is noticeable right away. with the first party cable text was a bit blurry, with the monster cable the text looks like it should. you can read a review at team xbox, I would agree with what they said about it. however, I would not pay 50 dollars for this cable. look around and find a good price. I got mine for 20. if you're going to use component I would recommend this cable. |

"Damaged T.V" | 2007-05-14 |

| Not only were these wires hard to fit into my 32inch Panasonic T.V they were even harder to pull out. When I tried to twist and pull off the monster cable the cable itself broke and even damaged my new hd television port. The cables were made very poorly though Iam sure they work well based on other reviews. This was the biggest waste of money ever. |

| I purchased these cables a few months back, and I love them extremley well built and very thick which is a good thing. I play Xbox 360 on a 63" Samsung Plasma top of the line. When I connected it a put in Gears of War, I was blown away by the depth and color detail I seen compared to Microsofts flimsy component cable. Can't wait to the Xbox 360 Elite system coming April 2007 it has HDMI and I know I am buying from Monster! |

"Good Component Cable with some problems" | 2007-02-28 |

| First of all I would like to point out that this cable does add to picture clarity as well as bring out brighter colors. From a video stand point I would recommend this cable. However, the biggest disappointment with this cable is the lack of a fiber optical output out of the box. I would think that any monster cable would come with this standard! Even cheaper component cables come with this feature as a standard feature. Monster forces you to buy the fiber optic cable that is made specifically for the X Box 360 by including the needed adapter with this cable. As a result you are forced to spend 45-70 dollars on the AV cable and then another 25-35 on a fiber optic cable. In my case I already had several THX 1000 cables that I planned on using with my 360 and now I am forced to spend more money on a THX 400 or below just to get the adapter. As a huge monster cable fan I am extremely disappointed with the company's decision to package the product in this manner. Shame on Monster cables! |

"Huge Quality Improvement over original cables" | 2006-11-11 |
| - Reviewed By User: AINGDIRHVUMGA |
After doing much research online, I decided to purchase these Monster Component Cables for my Xbox 360. I currently have a 32" Samsung LCD HDTV (LN-S3251D) and I had been using the component cables that came with the Xbox 360 for about 4 months. The reviews I read regarding these Monster cables were absolutely correct: these new cables truly provide a sharper HD picture. Colors and textures in games are much brighter and are clearer than ever.
I also use my Xbox 360 as a DVD/HD-DVD player. With the original Microsoft component cables, my DVD movies appeared grainy and washed-out. It was such an awful picture that I would be forced to watch DVDs on my other HDTV with a standalone DVD player. With the addition of these new cables, DVD and HD-DVD movies appear almost life-life on my Xbox 360. For anyone who has purchased (or is planning to purchase) the HD-DVD player add-on, I would highly recommend these Monster cables.
The audio through my HDTV's stereo speakers also seems clearer with less distortion and hollowness.
Overall, these Monster cables would make a great addition to EVERY Xbox 360 user with an HDTV. Highly recommended. |

"Monster Xbox 360 Component Cable" | 2006-07-06 |

| The Monster Cables are better than the standard Microsoft Cables, if you want to see more realistic colors and sharper video then you should buy these cables, but I should note that any component cables will not be as good as a digital cable because component cables are analog. But for now there are no Digital cables for the Xbox 360. So this is the best one, unless they make a HDMI or DVI cable for the Xbox 360. If they do then my guess is it won't be for sale until 2007. So, if you can't wait 'till then, then buy the component cables now and enjoy them until the Digital cables come out, then buy the digital cables. |

Good:
- Best Image/Color quality - Long Shielded Cable - Very sleek look which matches the Xbox360 perfectly
Bad:
- Bit Pricey
If you have a HDTV and demand the absolute best in picture quality then I would definately go for these cables.
