View Full Version : HDMI cables question

What are the best bang for my buck HDMI cables I can get? Are there any differences between the cheap cables ($10-15) and the expensive ones ($50-$100)? Or do they all work pretty much the same?

I just bought a PS3 and new HDTV, and I want to make sure everything works at their full potential. Read some stuff about it online, but I'm still kind of confused. Would prefer in-store recommendations to online, cause I don't want to wait >_>

Any help is appreciated.

They all do the same thing, I got one for 5 bucks and it's just fine.

In my experience, the "Psyclone" brand cables tend to break easily. But other than that just use whatever cable you can grab.

Monoprice is the way to go. Do not spend more than $10 on an HDMI cable. There is no quality difference, and you will only get ripped off.

So long as you're not going to be running the cables across a large room, there's no reason not to go with Monoprice.
