Don't Fall for Gold plated hype Oct 19, 2007 Digital networks work over most any wire. 20 Years ago we were running 1 Megabit digital networks over Army Field telephone wires that costed less then a penny a foot. The wire was used by the US Forest service to setup LANS hundreds of feet long in areas where they where fight Forest Fires. The wire worked, 1 Mbps was clean and they could just leave the wire behind on the forest floor if they had to run from the fires.
Your equipment does not need gold plated wires and Nitrogen filled wires. You just need an unbroken wire that is manufactured to the HDMI specifications.
Look at it this way. CAT 5 wire for 1000 Mbps LANS sells for about $75.00 for 1000 feet. It is copper wire, 4 twisted pairs. And your IP video signals run over it all through your house just fine. And when you Download HD movies from the internet it runs over even cheaper wires between your house and the movie provider.
The HD programming signals from the cable company runs over a COAX wire, yes, it might have a nitrogen core, but it is just that wire on the telephone pole outside your house.
So, the video arives at your house via cheap wire just fine. And it goes in your cable box just fine. Then why on earth do you think you would need a $15 a foot cable to improve the signal for that last 6 feet? Wires alone cannot improve a digital signal.
Think of a fax page. the orginal document is faxed to a fax machine. the Orginal looks better then the fax copy because much of the image iformation was removed to compress and transmit the information. If you then fax the fax to a fax it gets worse each time. That is how old analog TV worked, each time you copied the TV image it only got worse because of information loss.
No think of digital as not faxing but laser printing. Your print out the orginal on your laser printer. It looks marvelous. You then email a copy of that document to a friend, who then prints out your document on his identical printer. Again it look marvelous. Why? Because there was no "compression" of the image data. He printed an exact copy of what you printed. This is how digital television networks work.
When the TV signal is sent from the source (Cable/Satellite provider) to you it is passed through a series of hubs that regenerate or amplify the signal to move it over miles of wires. In the past old Analog 4:3 TV lost a little bit of information with each amplification and a little "noise/static" was introduced each time.
The Analog TV signal was being "faxed" to your house through several fax machines.
In contrast, Digital or HDTV signals are "emailed" to your house.
You should be more concerned about and money is better spent on the electronic componnents between the wires as they make the actual Signal quality and resulting picture quality.
A Gold plated refrigerator does not keep Milk fresher any longer than a non-gold plated refrigerator.

HDMI cables are ALL THE SAME regardless of price Mar 02, 2007 digital cables transmit a series of zeros and ones to an output source - usually your television or stereo. they either do that...or they don't. there is no quality loss or gain from the cheap or expensive cables, respectively. in other words, a cable either works flawlessly and as well as any other cable, or its broken. find the cheapest HDMI cable with the distance you need, and that's the best cable you can buy.

waste of money Feb 13, 2007 Don't buy any monster cable or any other expensive HDMI cable...they are a waste of money...you will get the same picture quality from a 5 dollar cable. That's the true, no doubt about it.
