Yes, Copartner is the OEM supplier for a good many companies regardless of the brand name; some of the very high priced ones too.
What I didn't like about some of the Monoprice cables is the addition of the ferrite cores. The ferrite cores add additional weight to the already delecate HDMI conection and can get in the way especially if your pulling the cable through a wall. I have seen no real benifit in noise reduction with the addition of the ferrite cores on the Monoprice cables.
