It's NOT worth the extra money. A mid priced cable is perfect. No need to spend lost of money on cables unless you are running a huge chain of effects of have a mammoth rack.

you can rip up a couple of cheap ethernet (cat5) cables and make your own.. the quality is pretty insane. my roommate just made his own speaker cables out of 3 ethernet cables.. they're freakin huge and have 12 wires for + and - each.. but they blow monster cables away with sound quality. of course, most amps don't have $1000+ speakers in them, so you may not notice the incredible definition they give ya. but around here at our school store, we can pick up a shitload of ethernet cable for $5, so it's super cheap and incredibly high-quality. braid the + and - in pairs, then braid a couple of strips of the + and - braids together. just a tip for the do it your self people.

I dont think ethernet cables where made for what your friends using them for... And dead, take a shitty cable and play for maybe 5 min on it to get the sound, then take a quality cable and play the same shit for 5 min and you will notice a difference. I rather spend $50 on a quality cable than use one of those wireless death traps.

Next time, read my post. "A mid priced cable is perfect" Where do you see me recomending piece of shit cables? If you can hear a difference between my middle range priced cables (which have a life time no questions asked guarantee) and a monster cable, well you are a liar.

i would consider the cheaper monster cables "mid-range", which is what i have, i mean 20 bucks per 12' cable is pretty cheap for a good cable, shit i have seen their top-of-the-line cables cost $100-$130 for the same length

no, dead is right, why the hell buy monster cables for double the cash of normal cables which have the same guarantee, and sound the same?

I've been using 'Sixt' cables for ages, they have a 5 year guarantee and are only available in 6 and 12 meter, I think they where like 25 bucks.
