Question: cables/ cables, hdmi,so many? which to pick Just got a Panasonic 720p 42 inch plasma I have a Onyko amp with hdmisays v1.3 repeator full 1080p HD surround decoding. Looking at blue-ray players possibly DMP-BD55K.How do I determine which hdmi i cables to get or what is best? to hook these all up. Cables seem so inexpensive, now.Any help would be appreciated. Have read some of the threads, but are little help. Bruce
Document: You can pay more, but I doubt the quality of sound and video will be better! I took a chance with these HDMI cables and purchased them to use with a new Hitachi 42" plasma TV that is hooked up to a Panasonic DVD/VCR recorder. They work perfectly. Will get another set to hook up a surround sound system. Even the cable tech was impressed by how well these HDMI cables worked. Like I said, you can pay more, but any performance gain will be minimal.
Ive purchased 4 of these cables and have no regrets. I've read alot of reviews for these cables and want to clarify something here. Alot of people are upgrading to these cables from the component cables supplied with their hdtv satellite or cable box...unless you're looking to cut down on cable clutter its unnessary. Component cables are capable of carrying 720p or 1080i signal which is what is broadcast by most if not all cable and satellite providers. Unless you're dealing with a 1080p signal hdmi isn't necessary.
I purchased the Cables to Go cable with my PS3 to connect it directly to a Vizio VX32L LCD TV. It worked almost flawlessly, a few times I noticed the screen would stay blue when switching screen resolutions between 1080i and 720p for some games. When I purchased my Roku I bought thePremium HDMI v1.3 Cable (2M/6ft. )for some variety. I originally used the HDMI v1.3 cable with the PS3 and moved the Cables to Go cable to the Roku.
I was surprised to see a cable with so many reviews and a great price. Since we got our Panasonic plasma I was worried about all the accessories. Got it for our DVD link and the quality is great, better than our "other companent links". I havent compared it with similar cables from different brands so cant comment much about its quality over other competing cables. But overall best value for money, stop by any retailer and you will know it.
I just recently purchased a Samsung HLT6187S 61" Slim LED Engine 1080p DLP HDTV from Amazon and got these cables to go along with it. I'm using them to hook up my PS3 to my TV. The picture quality is superb. I haven't used Monster HDMI cables on this TV yet so I can't really compare products, but so far these are doing the job just fine. I'm getting crystal clear 1080p resolution out of all of my blue-ray movies.
Used these cables to connect my 42" 720p Panasonic Plasma (TH-42PX80U) to my upconverting Sony DVD player (DVP-NS700H). Works great! Why pay more?
I had originally purchased an in-store cable for $240 for my new Panasonic 58-inch plasma TV. A friend of mine did a little more research on cables and found there is no reason to spend so much. When I switched from the $240 cable to this one, I noticed no reduction in quality. What a deal! Don't be tricked into spending too much like I almost was.
I used this cable from my Panasonic Blu-Ray player to my Panasonic 42" Plasma and the picture is fantastic. The cable has been in use for almost a year with no issues at all.Highly recommended - don't bother wasting money on higher priced cables that claim to produce better picture and sound. These are an excellent value and well made.
Cables work great. Would only need to upgrade to the more expensive Monster Cables if you needed a cable length greater than 20ft or have a True 1080p feed such as a Blue-Ray Player. Swift delivery and smooth conectivity. I bought these cable for my Sony Bravia 46inch 1080p HDTV and it looks amazing! Those of you complaining about a grainy picture may either require a better HD feed or a better quality TV. Pleased with purchase!
These inexpensive cables work great for my DVD player (720p device). Don't spend $60 or $100 for top end HDMI cables just to get a 2 way connection between your TV and a DVD player, TiVO, etc. Get's you full functionality of 2-way connection and crystal clear video/sound quality. Save the high end cables for a BlueRay player.
Answer: Did you go with the TX-SR606?  I got it a few months ago and love it.  It's a bit large but it handles all audio formats, so I'm happy with it.With HDMI cables (as with speaker cables) name brand means nothing.  You will save a bundle if you just go with the cheapest ones you can find.  Best Buy tries to sell the Monster brand HDMI cables for a hundred bucks or more.  That is robbery.  I got my three Belkin HDMI cables at Target for $40 each and I paid too much.  Just get anything you see that is version 1.3 or better.As far as Blu-Ray goes, the PS3 is the best thing out there.  It's a bit expensive though.  So if you're trying to save some money, I have seen some good reviews for the Sony BD-S350.  The DMP-BD55K looks nice too, as does the Samsung P2500.  When it comes to deciding which one to buy, it all boils down to cost vs. benefit.
