hey so i bought a tv.. .and was stupid enough to buy the overpriced monster cables. Anyways need some advice

i got Monster HDMI400 cables.

but with hdmi 1.3 and all this other stuff, what is a similar cable to the monster hdmi400? I just need something from my shaw pvr to the tv and dvd player to tv. Not sure if i need male/male etc etc. I cant literally look at the monster cables right now so thats why im asking.

I'd like to put and order into monoprice asap so i can have these cables when i get back so let me know.

component cables are the best for the wii right now, but it doesn't look good on big TVs

Uhh.. thats arguable. I get glitches in my video feed. Sometimes the colours are a tad off and rendering isn't perfect. Mario galaxy demonstrates how poorly it looks in HD.
