See you rag on me for not having a lot of post what does that have anything to do with what is talking about all i was saying is that i work in the electronics field and cheap cables arent that great...I mean you can list website after website after website but frankly ANYONE can create a website i mean you can put www.cheaphdmicables.com and of course its going to say they work fine and that PC world article is written by 1 guy whoopee, but if u knew anything about a good image get in contact with someone who works for the ISF (Image science foundation) and i guarantee they will tell you that those cables are not supported nor backed by the ISF to give you proper color reproduction.

I wish that we could get a cables sticky, of course since new folks can't seem to ever use the search function, I guess it is too much to expect them to read stickies as well.

BTW, just one more point for the about millionth time. Monster does not manufacture their own HDMI cable. Their cable is made in China by one of only a limited number of manufacturers. All HDMI cable in the entire US is made by this same limited number of manufacturers except for that sold by one company. That company is not Monster and it is not Monoprice. Even that company has their American made cable terminated in China. This is fact, you can research it for yourself.

And, once again, in case any other independent thinkers care to consider what is fact and what is hype, follow the links on this page and consider what the various discussions here tell you.

Here is a discussion on the origins of HDMI cable in the US. Keep in mind that while this site sells their own cable, they do not hesitate to tell you which of their cables were manufactured where and where it is terminated, and that certain giant cable maker's overachieving legal department hasn't been able to refute the information and make them take it down.

Here is that site's very useful and informative guide to HDMI cables. Notice that it does not constantly push their own, more expensive cable.

People would also learn a lot if they stopped listening to advertisments and participated in some discussions on forums like:

http://www.avsforum.com
http://www.audiocircle.com
http://www.audioholics.com
http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/forum/
just to name a few. All of them have either cable and interconnect subforums or multiple threads discussing them.
