Review 1 of 2

Price Paid:  $50.00 from Audio Advisor

Summary:
I removed the factory junky cables and installed this nice looking white beauty to the S video jacks on the DVD and telvision. The meter length allowed for sufficient cable slack to avoid stressing the connections at the RCA jacks

Strengths:
Color, clarity, depth, focus, texture, front-to-back realism and detail increase, improve and become more balanced INSTANTLY.

Weaknesses:
nothing noticed

Review 2 of 2

Price Paid:  $0.00 from Audio Advisor

Summary:
First off, the list price shown at top is incorrect. This is a little more expensive than $29.95 (a meter?) It is a very good, well built S-video cable that is affordable. Much better than Monster Cable ( what ever happened to Monster Cable...they made quality cables at one time...) This cable is flexible but sturdy, and produces images that are extraordinary. The colors, the blacks, all reproduced to make a "film-like" image. These cables make a noticeable difference. For the money, this cable is a very good buy. Straight Wire makes good, quality cables that won't break the bank. Want a great picture?? These will help! Recommended!

Strengths:
Good build, nice connectors, quality picture, a giant step up from the really cheap cables that usually come with most new equipment.

Weaknesses:
None that I can think of......

Similar Products Used:
Monster S-Video (very poor...bottom of the list), cables that come with new equipment, and AudioQuest S-1 S-Video cables ( also a very good cable for the price, and recommended)
