Monster CableÆ Unveils Three New Hookup Kits For Digital Satellite Systems To Maximize Performance From Satellite Receivers

27-Jul-01

Monster Cable Products, Inc., the world's leading manufacturer of high-end speaker, audio, video and computer cables, as well as power conditioning solutions and accessories, introduced three new satellite hookup kits with connections for audio/composite video, audio/S-Video, and fiber optic audio/S-Video hookup. Enthusiasts buy digital satellite systems not only for the variety of channels promised, but also for the high-definition picture and CD-quality digital sound delivered. However, inferior cable can sabotage the very performance quality satellite is capable of providing. RF-type cable with F-pin connectors offers the least performance benefit because it can interact with RF signals from TV, FM radio and fluorescent lights, seriously degrading sound and picture quality. A lack of proper shielding promotes even more interference that can cause audible distortions, ghosting and video ""snow."" And, the RF connection can deliver only mono audio. Conventional audio cable often features low-grade wire and poor shielding, which causes distorted sound and restricted dynamic range. Monster's Audio/Composite Video Satellite Hookup Kit features Monster VideoÆ 2 cable with specially stranded, all-copper design for lower signal loss and reduction in video ""noise."" Special heavy-duty double-shielding protects MV2 against outside radio frequency (RF) and electromagnetic (EM) interference. So, a DBS will produce the sharpest, brightest picture possible with vivid, natural color. This kit also features Monster's advanced performance InterlinkÆ 250 audio interconnect. I250's dual-balanced conductors deliver fuller, more natural sound. A 100 percent foil shield rejects RF and EM interference that causes buzz and hum. Each conductor is surrounded by a low-loss dielectric for minimum signal loss and accurate audio reproduction, even over long runs. And, all connections in this kit have 24k gold contacts for maximum signal transfer and corrosion resistance. The MS MV2/250 retails for $29.95 for 1 meter, $39.95 for 2 meters. Monster's Satellite Audio/S-Video Hookup Kit features advanced Monster Super VideoÆ 2 cable. MVSV2 has a low capacitance design that ensures high performance with minimum signal degradation and phase/color shift, even over long runs. It precisely transmits luminance and chrominance signals, which control brightness and color. The result is the most accurate, color balanced video picture possible. This kit also features Monster's advanced InterlinkÆ 250 audio interconnect. All connections in this kit have 24k gold contacts for maximum signal transfer and corrosion resistance. SV2/25 retails for $39.95 for 1 meter and $49.95 for 2 meters. Monster's Fiber Optic Audio/S-Video Satellite Kit (MSV2/ILS100) features advanced Performance InterlinkÆ LightSpeed 100 digital audio interconnect. ILS100's precision-polished termination and specially-tuned fiber deliver incredibly accurate transfer of digital audio source materials. The resulting reduction in jitter means, smoother, more natural and lifelike digital sound. This kit also has Monster Super VideoÆ 2 cable to get all of the benefits that S-Video can provide. MVSV2/ILS100 retails for $59.95 for 1 meter and $79.95 for 2 meters. For more information, visit www.monstercable.com.
