HDMI 2M Super High Resolution Cable
Nowadays, you will find that most home systems, audio-video systems all use the HDMI cable. It is now almost a must-have to use for HDTV viewing. These cables are designed to carry digital-only signals from a source to a display. Along with this, digital audio is transmitted over the HDMI cable, making it a versatile alternative to DVI.
User feedback:
I got this HDMI cable for under $10 just to see whether it will work as well as the expensive ones and it was well worth the risk. I tested it with my upconverting LG DVD player on 1080i resolution on my 42″ 1080p Westinghouse LCD TV and it works just like any other HDMI cable, including those loud names who charge you ten-fold for “golden plated extra special micro gravity nanotechnology space age wireless high conductivity low noise extra gauge supercalafragilisticexpialidocious” cables with no difference in performance. By buying this cable I avoided the huge “naive citizen tax” included in these products. Considering its price, this is an amazingly good cable.
HDMI is a digital signal. That means it’s all or nothing–not like analog where you may have degradation due to signal loss, crosstalk, radio frequency interference, etc. As long as you have a decent HDMI cable to transmit the digital bitstream from point A to point B, you’re set. I just purchased the new Sony Bravia S-series 32 inch LCD TV. To go with it, I trashed my old Apex with the missing remote and got a deal on a Sony DVP-NS70H upconverting DVD player that can synthesize “extra” lines of resolution. The player can send 720p or 1080i signal to the TV. (Current DVDs are 480p; that standard will change eventually with Blu-Ray and HD-DVD.) I knew that the upconversion feature only works through a digital connection, so I’d need to get an HDMI cable. Started checking prices and, no surprise, they were all over the place. Some were in the $100 range. Despite mild skepticism, I decided to try the cheapest one. This little beauty arrived in 3 days in a plain brown wrapper and a clear plastic bag. The cable is surprisingly robust, with nice build quality, supple insulation, and good connectors. I started to feel vindicated. So I plugged it in, put Harry Potter in the DVD player and WOW!! The DVD player and TV did their magic. Spellbindingly great picture and sound.
