Customer Review: Excellent value for your cable dollar
Summary: 5 Stars
This kit is a great idea, and is the most convenient way I've seen to get superb quality HDMI cabling for your home entertainment needs.
Convenience, however, is just part of the picture with these cables. These are serious cables. The sound quality is actually noticeably better than what I've gotten out of other cables, so much so that I'm planning to re-wire our downstairs set. I've got some knowledge of what makes a good cable, and my understanding is that there are three things that make a big difference, and these cables, in spite of a reasonable price point, have three things that you usually have to pay a lot more for:
1. All copper wire - and it's the high quality, solid center kind, so that makes the biggest difference in reducing sound distortion. Forget the "50% more copper" or "more copper than other cables" - you want 100% copper with a solid core.
2. Cable construction - these guys use the kind of organized cable structuring that much more expensive cable manufacturers use. Instead of just putting the wires in and twisting them, there is organized geometry in these cables that minimizes the magnetic spillover (and therefore, distortion) from one wire to another.
3. Not soldered connectors - solder can ruin an otherwise perfectly good cable, creating a "leap" for the signal that adds significant distortion. You do NOT want an HDMI cable with solder, even silver solder. It's not as good as these, no matter how much you're being overcharged for it.
These are the kinds of cable construction considerations that I've seen in some of the really high end stuff - some of which can get into thousands of bucks for cable. Not willing to go there, but this kit is a terrific deal for the money when it comes to quality, and you just can't beat the convenience. On the flip side, some of the biggest cable manufacturers do a great "sell" job, but don't meet the basic criteria outlined above for really superior quality. You'll see all kinds of claims, but read carefully. When they compare the quality of their image to conventional TV, that's a big watch-out. They should be comparing to other cable makers within the HDMI world. Of course it's better than conventional TV. It'd better be.
