i have street wires now, but i had monster when i first started. needed longer runs the second time around and switched from monster to streetwires. can't hear a difference at all. anyone who says they can is mistaken.
I had monster cable and JL audio, they both were overpriced but i did not know that at the time. I have knukonceptz karma right now and have not noticed a difference is sound quality.
Ive only used stinger, and never had a problem. I used to have a monster RCA patch cable in my crown vic, sounded fine - just too expensive to buy new ( luckly I got that one free)
