You can get em way cheaper than that if you know where to look, I would use those numbers as absolute maximum prices

Yeah, but i prefer quality, i bought some $2 cables, then some $20 cables, and the $20 ones are so much sharper.

If you Guys want I can put my brand new HDMI cables up for sale. Il sell em for 20$+Shipping.
My dad works for HomeTheater Company and they throw out alot of good stuff. These are the cables in a bag, so they arent in a box. If you think i should sell them send me a pm.

you do realise they are the exact same thing and there is absolutely no difference in quality
digital signals are all 0's and 1's, meaning as long as the cable is not cut/frayed, they are the same

Reaper, HDMI Cables have a signature core, which defines the amount of data that can be put through them at once, the Cheap HDMI Cables topped out at around 1Gb/s up and back, which is 2Gb in normal use.

The more expensive HDMI Cables can do 5Gb/s up and down, so 10Gb in normal use.

The more bandwidth the cable has the less compressed the picture is, and the sharper the image is.

Yeah but then they just do pointless things to make it sound cool like ive seen cables with inert gases injected into the wires 'to stop intereference'. My cable came free with my PS3 and its great. Normally £15 i think. Its not anything special. Also, gold connectors are a waste of time.

They have them on uh... EBAY for cheap
having a higher post count doesn't earn respect in the forums, quality posts do.

thanks,
