That's not so bad. Up here the "medium quality" monster digital coax is about $40 and "the only one good enough for your $500 receiver" is about $80. If the $80 monster cable is the only one worth using it makes you wonder how they get $40 for the crappy one
[EDIT] Just read the linked article. Looks like two coat hangers, one for signal and one for ground. That makes sense. Still interesting though -- I could *not* make a cheapo RCA interconnect work between my Sony DVD player and HK receiver.

Ken, at this time of year it's probably appropriate to also recall the heroic exploits of Mick Loney and Al Magnani in the digital wire wars.
