Best Buy Monster 6' cable is about $90

Cheapest at Wall Mart $36

On line stores $10


For a 6 foot cable the $10 one works just fine.

edit: Those are cheap!! $3.94 and they say they are certified.

Yup, a zero is a zero and a one is a one. Unless cables become dyslexic, there is no need for an expensive cable for short runs. If you need 50ft of cable, then perhaps the story might be a little different.
