Monster Cable, in
alliance with THX, offers a new line of certified cables incorporating
specifications researched and developed by THX. The certification standards
include a series of electrical, physical and ergonomic specifications that
guarantee top-notch sound reproduction and premium-grade construction.
THX developed cable specifications for accurate
system connections because cabling is an important element in the signal path of
home entertainment systems. Home theater systems, with their many additional
channels and components, represent a unique challenge in maintaining the
integrity of the audio signal. A complete system typically includes source
equipment, a surround controller, room equalization, multi-channel
amplification, and at least six loudspeakers. The cumulative effects of
frequency response errors, hum, and other distortions become very audible in
such complex, multi- channel home theater systems.
Monster
cables certified by THX met the following criteria:
Audio cable electrical specifications for insertion loss and bandwidth to
minimize frequency response deviations and signal losses, given a usage length.
A widely recognized color coding standard for easy channel recognition and
simplified polarization.
Jacket printing of vital information to indicate polarity, grounding location
and usage length limits.
Mechanical specifications for connection integrity insuring product longevity
and reliability.
Video cable electrical specifications for insertion loss and bandwidth to
preserve color purity and picture detail and stability.
This new line of cables brings home theater
enthusiasts and installers high performance cabling at a reasonable price
whether it is used with THX or non-THX certified systems.
