John, I bought some of those (again following your recommendation) to go from my TV to my receiver, and a long one to go to my sub. In both cases it seems to have been an improvement over the free, skinny, red and black cables that I had laying around. In particular the TV's audio output through the receiver seems to have been increased significantly.

I've been slowly switching out all my Monster Cable. So far I've bought a pair from Heartland Cables, and a pair from River Cables. Both seemed to be pretty much the same, and both cost about $55/pair. Then I found the Blue Jeans cables online. As far as I could tell they're made from the same parts (Belden cable, Canare connects, etc), but only cost about $26/pair. I'm not in any hurry, I've got all the connection made. I just hate all that monster cable I've bought. (If I'd only know how many other choices there were out there!)
I just checked again, and their site is back up. Must have just been down last night. Blue Jeans. They really need a website guru. Their site is pretty ugly.

Good stuff, though. I'm thinking of replacing all of my "out of box" cables at some point, and I think I'll look there. Of course, then there's my ADB cables subbing for s-video cables! :-)

Based on what I'm reading some of the old hands are actually trying brand name cables....WOW...last week some people were looking into higher end amps (few months ago people are saying power is power)...this week people looking into better cables....wow....
how ironic.

Hey spiff...I'm thinking about replacing my mish-mash of cables too. Maybe we can get an additional discount from BlueJeans if we buy a lot together.

Blue Jean cables make a very good product for their price. I use 1 of their S-Video cables and have 6 audio cables for DVD-Audio/SACD.
I just wish they made speaker cables at their prices. The best price wise for speaker cables seems to be Heartland.
