[quote name='TheShepherdSauce']I can't tell if you people commenting on the price of the hdmi cable are being sarcastic or not (perhaps a mix of both? haha). Anyways, never heard a bad thing said about monoprice and they have the cheapest prices i've seen yet.

Anyone who thinks that buying a monster name brand cable will make a difference, shouldn't be on CAG

+1

Besides the fairly expensive shipping (depending on how little you order), Monoprice is the way to go. Ordered two 6' cables myself, a couple weeks ago. Everything else is overpriced and unnecessary unless you're running a 50 foot cable (for some reason).

lol QFT. I felt bad for my brother-in-law spending hundreds of dollars on cabling for his TV and stereo system from Best Buy and thinking he got a "deal". Cabling prices are so inflated at some places it's ridiculous.

beat me to it.. monoprice +1 for HDMI cables. Its really absurd how overpriced so many companies make their cables. STill for those who are weird and want that 'piece of mind' go ahead and spend 15 bucks, it beats the 40+ monster and other garbage companies rape you for

btw @Alien Spider ... bad ass avatar man =)

look at the manufacturer name.. thats a cheapo 3rd party one

[quote name='SportInjectionR']monoprice.com is awesome, I buy all of my analog cables from there. For HDMI, I usually buy on eBay from the cheapest reputable seller, for instance this guy:

Can't beat $1.59 shipped for a 6' HDMI cable.[/QUOTE]


analog stuff is the one thing that im iffy on with monoprice I got a 360 vga adaptor and it doesn't work that well. if i put it much higher than 720p the picture doesn't look very good, and theres ghosting issues. The review for it up on the site has other people with the same problem. So at the very least, that analog product is pretty poor

I guess with the new slim models and the smaller packages, the MS branded HDMI cable no longer includes the audio dongle (generally unnecessary for the slims) which was the only reason to consider them in the first place (if you happen to be someone with a non HDMI receiver like I used to be).

I was referring to analog RCA cables, monoprice's premium line in particular. Thanks for correcting my error of assuming that all of their analog products are great.

Their digital cables are also very good quality, but you can usually find cheaper on eBay, and for standard digital interconnect cables I tend to choose cheaper since I've never had any quality issues with them.
