monster cables vs ?

just starting a new thread about the heavily priced monster cables. can any bassist say they are worth the £$£$£ ? i have never used any monster cables and use planet waves that have lasted my ages now. as i need a new instument lead now, i looked at the price of the monster cable and was shocked. any veiws :D
 
I went the monster cable route for a very short time. I found the instrument cables to be the most prone to kinks and tangles of any other cable I have ever used. And I noticed zero difference in sound quality. I use Spectraflex, they sound great, and have a lifetime warranty...just keep the packaging and if the cord craps out ship it back for a new one. On the other hand I do use the very short monster cables to connect tuners, DIs etc, and they are fine. They are short enough that there is no kinkage issue.
 
cheers for the links guys, yeah i will prolly stay clear of the heavily priced monster cables, but the bayou audio cables link looks great. aslo thanks for the link from UK, might be easy to order from there too :) thanks guys
