Arrow Monster "Super Thin" HDMI Cables
Monster Cable has come out with what looks to be a truly innovative product. We've seen fat cables and flat cables, cables of all colors, finishes, and lengths. We've tested cables, we've reviewed cables, and we've talked about them to no end. But, for the first time, we're seeing a truly thin HDM cable. At only 3.5mm in diameter (the size of the jack on your headphones), it really is significantly thinner than everything else out there. Monster says it is around 65% thinner than normal HDMI cables! Now that's thin!

A preview? From monster?
Active what?
And a link to monster's homepage?

Is this really AH?

Anyway, I'll wait for you test on this thing. Get that mega-tester machine to work

I can't believe it! Is this a first from MC? No other company makes this yet?

I guess it's nice that it's thin, but I'm not the least bit excited about it.

Does this mean that Monster now has a patent on thin HDMI cables?

Most likely.

I wonder what the mark up will be on these over at Best Buy?

I hope that Super Thin Ribbons sues them. I was going to buy some ribbons but bought a dang HDMI cable instead. That new product name confused me.

All I have to say about this product is: Nobody cares because it is from Monster.
