HDMI 1.3a Category 2 Certified Cable 28AWG - 6ft w/Ferrite Cores (Gold Plated Connectors) - ORANGE

has anyone tried them? the price is around $3.00 each it sounds hard to believe.

thank you

I never tried the orange ones but the black ones work perfectly!

Edit: the color part is a joke, but I do have the same cables (5 of them, but I only used 3 so far) I paid 4.73$ back in April (so you have a good deal 37% off :P)

Should be perfectly fine.

Well believe it!

Monoprice? Hrm, did they just start up or something? Must be a new company. Probably a scam.

...seriously though, they're very reputable and if there was an official cable provider for blu-ray.com, it'd be monoprice. I just got a really snazzy 12' subwoofer cable from them for under $5.

Ditto. I love this cable very much. In fact, I ordered another one of them this morning for a BD player I bought today. The status was changed to shipped within an hour of ordering. I will never buy a cable anywhere else ever again thanks to these guys.

monoprice is a very reputable site. all their cables rock and I ordered for $200 so far and the cables are superb. I will b ordering 28awg hdmi cuz my 24s are a little too stiff.

My_Two_Cents · 11-28-2008, 05:37 PM

I've got several orange ones, and they work just fine. Color makes no difference.

Steve · 11-29-2008, 12:09 AM

Never used an orange one, but have 2 black ones that work just fine. Also have one 10 footer in black that works just as well.

Beta Man · 11-29-2008, 12:31 AM

I have a 25 footer for my projector.... works like a charm.... just like every other cable out there

I heard if you lick the orange HDMI from monoprice they taste like orange! get real! color is just a color. Would a black ferrari runs faster than a silver ferrari?

zombie77 · 11-29-2008, 07:21 AM

actually the orange one taste like a dreamsicle!

No, a red Ferrari runs faster :P

(I guess I'm guilty of starting the joke about color and it was just a joke!

)

DezNutz · 12-01-2008, 09:05 PM

I got both orange and blue one and they work fine..

btw I got colored ones for easier distinction on what component I was hooking up.. PS3 is blue cable.. cable box is orange..

Lucy Diamond · 12-01-2008, 09:20 PM

Monoprice makes rediculously awesome cables.

I still can't believe it.

I have said it many times and I'll say it again.
My art director 1) Hired me 2) promoted me and 3) gave me a bonus...all for sending him to monoprice.com

So...clearly...I have a bizarre devotion to that site for a number of reasons...BUT...all that aside...they make great stuff whether they made my career better or not.

(I also don't really ever want to find out what happens if I send him to a less then stellar website

)
