Monster is just ordinary cables in a fancy package. For mic and line we use Klotz. For speakers (i.e. between power amp and speaker) we use heavy-duty two-core flexible power cable.

"Supposed to be as good as monster cables" is certainly no recommendation. I've no direct experience of evidence cable, but their promo materials sure sound a lot like the kind of speil you invariably hear from the snake-oil merchants.

Superb, professional quality, dependable (and not over-hyped and over-priced) cable can be had from Canare, Mogami and Belden. Most pro studios are cabled using one of these three.

The best option is to get a roll of a suitable type of one of the above brands (eg we use Canare L2T2S here) and make up your own cables using decent quality connectors (Neutrik, Switchcraft etc).

Failing that, I'd recommend that you purchase cables from a supplier that makes up their cables using known decent brands of cables and connectors such as the above.
