Summary: Spend the extra money.
Review: Ever since I started building a home theatre, I have upgraded the speakers to try to improve the quality of the sound. While the speakers were getting better and better, the sound wasn't improving like I was hoping. After purchasing these speaker wires and the subwoofer cable, I can tell what a difference the cables make in the sound quality. Don't buy high price, high quality speakers without investing the extra money to buy quality speaker wire. If the sound signal isn't pristine when it gets to the speaker, the speaker won't produce pristine sound.

Summary: Yes, cables matter, but...
Review: There are better choices than Monster, look into Kimber or Audioquest cables. For the same price, they are considerably better than Monster. Monster has the lion's share of low-end (read:zip-cord) and entry level hi-fi cables, because of great marketing. Go to any chain store (e.g. Best Buy) and you'll see Monster for sale.
Like most things in life, however, if you put a little effort into research you will find better choices, for similar prices. Make sure you buy from a place where you can return the item, however!
In my first real eye-opener as to cable differences, I switched from Monster to Audioquest 4's (.. no terminators, just bare wire)and my _wife_ noticed improved sound (she didn't know I'd changed anything).
