[QUOTE="helotaxi, post: 1482404, member: 550915"] Forget about Monster Cable. The price cannot be justified unless you just want bragging rights or something. Hum doesn't come from the cable, it comes from a bad ground somewhere else in the system or a noisy component in the system. Radiated noise isn't the problem that the cable marketing departments would have you believe it is in the car environment. Radiated noise requires a fluctuating current (AC or heavily pulsating DC) and the resultant expanding and collapsing magnetic field that it generates. Unless you wrap the cheapest unshielded cable you can find around your ignition module, ECU or ABS module there is not anything in the car that is going to cause radiated noise. Honestly the only reason I bought the Bullets over the most basic Phoenix Gold or Stinger shielded RCAs was I liked the way they looked. The PG are flat ugly IMO (though I have used them before and still have a set laying around) and the blue Stingers would not look right in my install (I still used a set of the blue Y cables on the outputs of my EQTs where they couldn't be seen though).
