LOOK for the WORDS in " RETAIL PACKAGING " Etc. !!! I have Bought & RETURNED , many " Monster HDMI " (???) in ZIP LOCKS & Boxes but, NOT " NEW " !!! There are MANY 17.8 Gbps HDMI Cables on SALE due to the NEW 18 Gbps !!! I got 0NE for $30.00 and 2 for $20.00 a month later :o))

It came in the Monster packaging when I ordered as if I just picked one up from a store.

Are you asking a questions or making a statement? I purchased the Monster 100 feet speaker cable online after reviewing the same cable at Fry's. The wire is quality constructed with multiple strands of interlaced wire and is well shielded for noise reduction. The longest run is approximately 30 feet from my Onkyo receiver and Samsung 65" television though the attic and walls to my Polk speakers. The sound is superb and the quality as I expected. You will like this wire.

Warning! I just found out (4/27/15) that unless the seller is one of Monster's authorized dealers the warranty will NOT be honored. They will send ONE new replacement but the warranty ends with it. This is enforced even though the cable is genuine and came in the original manufacturer's packaging. Topgoods is NOT an authorized seller.

Store is trying to make money off you. With monster, you are paying for the name and little else. This is about 20Gbps and that will be about 2x the rate you need. Don't waste your money. Use this link and go to 7:20 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jcqta4fjH8w and they break it down. There is a new standard where the TV sends signal so that it can actually control the volume of your sound system (amp/receiver) but other than that....I bought this and then bought a few more. You'll thank me later.

You will be just fine with any brand name HDMI cable. Just keep the run under 15 feet. I like Monster Cable.

No, not normal - Have you checked your wiring, ground, etc? Are the green and blue lights glowing properly? I have two of the surge protectors- One since 2003 and there is no hum... I would return it.... Monster Cable will not honor a warranty by a seller they do not certify. Amazon is certified, but most of the merchants selling the product at a cheaper price are not.

It's a knockoff. Return it to amazon. I bought two of these a year ago, with one coming from Amazon and one from an Amazon reseller. The reseller's cable was complete junk and an obvious knockoff, not a real Sony product. I'd return it immediately.

Yes it would work but to be honest I would actually rather buy them from the monster actual website because I have pot this product about 3 times and all three times it has been really cheap and two other times the cable actually did not work. & I had to email and send the product back and they sent me a new one but again the product did not work. So I would actually recommend buying it from the actual monster website which is what I actually did and they are original parts. But the product will work but again it's now your choice if you want to take a chance buying this product or buying and the regional product from the monster website.

Firmware on both are up to date..This is the HDMI cable i'm using Monster Cable M2000HD M Series M2000 HDMI 2000 M - 8 feet i think the cable should be good enough but,i'll need to get a newer one just to make sure.

yes, it does what it's supposed to do. I haven't had a problem with mine and its not a bad price for the cable too! shipping is another story..

The cable I received appears to be a Samsung cable, but mine shipped from a different vendor. I do know that Samsung has had issues with counterfeits on cables/chargers, but I don't have any reason to think what I received was counterfeit and, in any event, it works fine and is of high quality.

i've had really great results with the "cables to go" hdmi cable. $10 a piece here at amazon. they work just as well as the $70 monster cable i also have. if i still had the box for the monster cable, i would return it and get another "cables to go" cable.

No.. Do NOT spend $90 on a HDMI cable. All you need is a HDMI 1.3 compliant cable and you can get yours for as low as 6$ from Meritline. The Monster cables are a huge scam..!

It came in a monster branded package and Looks just like all other Monster products I have ever bought. So I would say it is a true Monster product.

Sorry about that last response Marshall. I was totally thinking of ANOTHER CABLE that I had bought from Amazon. In response to your question, the cable I received is marked (printed on the cable itself) with "GLS Audio - Professional Series - Noise Free" I can assume it's legit. Hope that helps, Roger
