Zacspeed Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 I think all this Expensive HDMI rubbish should be in the Home Theatre Section. Some of the conversation should be in another forum altogether hehe

diesel Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 Summary; HDMI cables can be expensive but the expensive ones aren't necessarily all that much better, if at all
pgdownload Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 A significant majority, perhaps all, of the HDMI TVs and projectors that support 1080p may cleanly recover the 1080p HDMI signal using a Standard-rated HDMI cable. However, the only way to guarantee that your cable will perform at higher speeds is to purchase a cable that has been tested at the higher speeds.I love it. They even specify it as useless in 99.9% of cases, just add the rider "But just to be sure..." - they'll sell a squillion (wonder how many people will be pulling out their 'standard' Moster cables and putting in the upgrade?Regards Peter Gillespie
mello yello Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 i've seen alot of different cables availble ranging from $300 to $20. so the question is; is there a difference? i know high end audio cables does make a difference but visual? i'll mainly be using DVI > HDMI connection though the computer so is $300 cables just snake oil? any feedback appreciated...*i dont know if this is the right section to post this but i searched around but couldnt find a proper section. Easy solution..why dont you buy both and judge for yourself?

mello yello Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 i think Linda is a 16yr old blond from Canada, and Austen is her surfy boy friend who swallowed multiple bluebottle jellyfishes because they looked tasty, resulting in uncontrollable jerking action of the right hand and irreversible brain damage(not like it mattered anyway). And I think youre just a tightarse who wants to try and save 5 dollars and expecting everyone on this forum to do your research for you Anything else on that shopping list you need help with ?
AndrewW Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 pretty hard to filter any good information out of the garbage. Easy. Anything before post 32 was reasonably useful and constructive. It all went downhill after that.
stahc Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 Austen,You are one funny Maycvour (as our "friend" would say it) Ols if austen was maycvour.............he wouldn't need hdmi...............he'd save us with a paper clip
Nevyn72 Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 if austen was maycvour.............he wouldn't need hdmi...............he'd save us with a paper clip If Austen was Maycvour, would that mean that Dondomains is Patty(Spanish) & Selma (Sweedish)?
