Got one from Amazon last week. 5 metres for £3.78 delivered or thereabouts. Cant tell the difference between that and the "premium" on I got previously for a heck of a lot more. Recommend it.
|
|
By:
as i thought, probably not much to tell between cheap/expensive to the "normal" man in the street.
|
|
By:
As I mentioned earlier, I'm sure it's something to do with whatever goes through the cable.
It's not like audio or speaker cables, where quality matters |
|
By:
I paid £5 for one out of Argos but I can't compare it to any others. It does the job for the PS3.
Good luck in your quest. |
|
By:
It depends on your audio and movie systems.
If you have a shyte system then a ceap cable will do just fine, although you will still notice a marked difference when you upgrade, however if you have a top cinema system then it is pointless not laying out another £50 for a decent cable to get the most out your system other wise you should just have bought a cheap system and saved yourself a few grand. |
|
By:
Basically, HDMI sends a binary signal - 0 or I. The bits arrive or they don't, quality is not an issue.
Don't waste your cash on an expensive one. |

By:
no difference between any of them
http://www.amazon.co.uk/1-8M-HDMI-Cable-Gold-Connectors/dp/B0017RW94A/ref=pd_sim_dbs_ce_1 this one is 1.8 meters off amazon for 95p and 99p delivery charge |

That's it Occam's Razor
Something to do with binary I thought I may have been thinking about another type of cable |
