Question Help with HDMI cable

Hi all,

I want to get the best available HDMI cable in the market today in terms of value for the money, quality and images. I am confused with so many brands in the market I really don't know what to pick.

I tried to search in the Google but couldn't find an article about where they review/test different HDMI cables currently available in the market given points to each with the highest scores. If you guys know any can you please provide me with a direct link to that website article?

If you have a personal experience please give me an sugestion of which brand I should pick..

In advance thank you so much all of you

Unless you go over 50ft., they're all the same. Once you go over that length, make sure you get pure fiber optic - NOT copper with fiber optic ends but fiber optic throughout the length. Trust me, I've done a whack of research of HDMI. Oh, and all the cables pass 1.3 so don't believe marketing crap.

Do a search here. This discussion has been raised a number of times. Suffice to say their are two groups and for the time being there is no chance of getting a compromised position. The two positions are

Cheap cables as long as they meet the standard are fine and are as good as any other HDMI cable (especially for short runs).

Expensive cables (brand names that are associated with quality) claim they produce a much greater quality and worth every cent.

https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=15685 for example, there are plenty more search on HDMI Monster.
Locking thread as there are a number of other threads that cover this -revive one of them if required.
