It's not bashing, it's trying to protect the innocent. Last week I went to my uncles to set up his new surround system. When I arrived, he had 2 50' reels of Monster cable waiting for me in a 'Futuristic...' plastic bag. Also inside was a receipt for close to $300 for only 100' of wire.
I asked him how much of a hurry he was in and said we could do two things. Go to Home depot and cut his wire bill in half or if he had time to wait, we could order actual in-wall rated speaker wire for probably 50$ shipped from Monoprice.
I'll be back there tonight to hook up his Monoprice wire.
We did take some time to play with his new Paradigms though with some cable from his old stereo setup. I suspect he will be one happy couch potato when we get done tonight.
