    I noticed a marked improvement in clarity and color over Monster CV3 component video cables with the component video cables sold by Blue Jeans Cable. I found this area to be their best cost/benefit wise because the coaxial cable they use by either Canare or Belden and the Canare RCA connectors they use are top notch for the purpose of transmitting video signals. I wouldn't consider anything else for component video use because I don't think anything else is necessary for use with HDTV or progressive scan video signals.

    For audio use, I found the cables to be excellent choices for use with receivers but overly bright/harsh with higher resolution gear.

    I have heard that they are pretty good but I use Cobalt Cables for my interconnects and front three with excellent results.

    I use quadshielded RG6 with F-RCA connecters and it looks just as good as my fancy "top-of-the-line" old Monster Component cables.
