Are you a HTSpot member and need cables?

It looks like you can get 50% off on all these cables up until April 22nd. I don't know if I'm allowed to give the promotion code here or not though.

I'll play it safe and simply say, do a search.

Your location says: "Cali", as in California? I hope so since I think there is a problem shipping outside the USA that they are currently working on.

You're gonna buy an Optical cable? Hmmmm....not sure I'm sold on those just yet. For some reason I think a cheaper optical cable would suffice, but hey, that's your call.

Me, I'm afraid to start ordering....before I know it I'll be ordering ALL new cables from speaker wire to DVI and that would be pricey!

Hey Ig, im curious if you noticed this or not when looking at their site. Is it me, or is the subwoofer cable the same as the digital coaxial cable. they at least have the same exact description except replacing the word subwoofer or audio components...interesting.

I didn't catch that...but will revisit. Are the 'specs' the same? Is it a Y cable? I'll take another look.

not a Y cable, and the specs they list, like in the description are the same..check it out. Anyone who is interested in buying from you guys i will tell you in quality (not sound) but manufacturing of the cables i am very impressed. i recieved mine yesterday and they appear to be very well built and good looking cables. I will let you know more when i actually hook them up tonight, but i expect good results. Definately worth the cost with 50% off.

My procrastinating ass hates you. I got a couple days left to order though.

Can't wait for what you think on the sound. Good for you man!

I am pretty impressed, especially on the sound side. i did buy an HDMI cable but i dont think the quality jump is that noticable, but the locking feature is very nice. However, when it came to sound, i noticed right away. Now i didnt have a crappy cable hooked up to my player, it was a decent coaxle cable, not monster quality or something as expensive, but, as i said decent. This cable really made a difference though. The sound was crisper and it actually increased the volume just a little, better connection. I like the optical cable because it wont get pinched or bent with the sheathing its got on it. The sub cable was perfect length and also improved the bass output of my sub. Overall i would rate this as an excellant product, especially for the price. I am really tempted to see how their actual speaker wire puts out.
