Customer Review: Not compatible with my system
Summary: 2 Stars
This cable produces white spots (snow effect) when connecting my samsung bd6900 blu-ray player to Pioneer vsx-1120-k receiver. I tried another brand of cable and it did not have this problem. I bought 2 of these cables and both have the same problem. I am guessing it is a compatibility problem rather than a defect because when I connected the bd6900 blu-ray player to another receiver (yahama rx-v567), it worked okay and did not produce the snow effect. Also, when I use this cable to connect the Pioneer vsx-1120 receiver to the samsung pn58c8000 tv and use a different hdmi cable brand to connect the Pioneer receiver to the blu-ray player, everything works ok.
Again, the issues I am having is when this cable is used to connect a samsung bd6900 blu-ray player to a Pioneer vsx-1120-k receiver. I am returning this item and getting a different brand (preferably something in the $20+ range).
Prior to this experience, I've always believed that all hdmi cables are pretty much the same - as long as they are gold-plated and decently constructed but now I don't believe that anymore. Price always affects the quality of a product and lower price ALWAYS means lower quality IMHO.
Customer Review: No Brainer - If You Don't Buy These Cables, You Paid Too Much!

OK..let's be honest. We paid hundreds - likely thousands - of dollars to enjoy high def home theater and we want to be sure our lousey cables are not going degrade our picture or sound quality.
We go into home theater departments only to accept that quality HDMI cables of any quality run $30 - $60 each. High end Monster cables run $120 each! With an average system now requiring two to four HDMI cables. you COULD spend big dollars without being sure you have the BEST cables.
How about $9.95/6' cable for the best high def 1080P HDMI.com 1.3 certified CAT 2 cables. Amazon brings you these excellent performers at a truely rock-bottom price.
Once I did my homework, I understand that HDMI certifies cables into a new 1080P CAT 2 1.3 standard.
Anything less could result in true signal loss when utilizing 1080P inputs/outputs.
These cables are of excellent quality suitable for any top-end system (like mine O:). Don't spend 10X more for less quality. And at $9.95 each, they are great for any home theater tv for maximum pleasure for years to come.

P.S. I just ordered three more for my bedroom TV's :O)

Purchased an upconverting DVD player and two HDMI cables to A/B between the two, and connected this to my new Samsung HDTV. The price of the cables was the same; one was this Mediabridge 'High-Speed' Category 2 cable and the other was .... The first cable arrived sooner than this one so I hooked it up and was very satisfied with the picture. No complaints. This cable arrived a few days later and I set it aside....I was happy with the picture so why the rush? Well, upon inspection, the Mediabridge cable LOOKED better; much thicker yet still flexible, and of quality construction. I swapped out the cables and WHOA! What a difference! Not only did the cable fit more snugly into the HDMI connections but it was apparent to everyone in the room that 'Category 2' made a difference...colors seemed more vibrant and crisp, blacks seemed blacker, and the picture seemed much sharper and 'in focus', if you will. I don't have a top-of-the-line sound system so I didn't notice any discernible change in audio quality, but the video quality was so different I ended up spending the evening re-watching most of my latest DVDs to see the difference in picture quality! This from a $10 HDMI cable!Customer Review: DON'T WORRY, DON'T OVERPAY, FANTASTIC RELIABLE PRODUCT!

When my "old" (5yrs) TV died, I was surprised at all the new and different features available to be state of the art. My research began and imagine my surprise when I found out that even though I was going to spend over $1,000, the HDTV I selected (along with all of them) requires purchasing extra cables if you want to watch your set. And not so BTW-what a rip off. Then I discover the cables cost between $90 and $125 each and I'd need 3 of them if I wanted all the bells and whistles I selected to operate properly! I went on line and through reading lots of stuff including technical information, I found out that these cables are on a 0 & 1 system like a computer so that as long as the cable connection is not over 15 feet, it's kept straight (unlike electricity which flows even through knoted and coiled wire) and it's compatable with your resolution speed (600Hz, 120Hz etc.) all brands perform exactly the same and paying for the name brand that is 10 times the price is unecessary and therefore wasteful and stupid. So I purchased 3 @$10 through Amazon and guess what...they work perfectly and I saved a whopping $270. That's not chump change my friend! It paid for my DVD upgrade!!!Customer Review: great hdmi cable

As many others on this review board said this is a great Hdmi cable for the money. And that as far as Hdmi cables go you don't want anyone older than 2007. This one is from 2008 and has all the specs needed to carry you far into the future. You can read the specs and details in so many other reviews here. Needless to say this only proves how overpriced so many hdmi cables really are. Should anyone of them be over a hundred bucks? Probably not!, although I have paid that much for one. Now with a analog cable or componant bables it's worth your while to pay over a hundred bucks to get silver coated copper video cables, avoid this on speaker wires though as you don't need the silver really. But with a purely digital signal; you need good protection from interference and a solid build which this one delivers. So don't overspend on digital cables but on analog cables it's worth paying over a hundred for great ones, but not more than 400.00 for sure. Studies prove that. This being a digital cable ,which does a good as job as a much more expensive one is worth getting. Save your bucks for a new blu ray player or ps3 or a blu ray disc and grab this great cable for a incredible price.
