5 Stars Cables work fine
Installed them and they work as advertised. Got good a good price, good delivery time and a product that works. I will buy from these guys again.

5 Stars Great quality! Great Price!
Definitely don’t go for the expensive wires! The affordable ones that you find here work just as good as those expensive ones. I bought this one to use with my laptop and my HD LCD TV and it works great!

1 Star never got them
I never recv’d these cables, the USPS claims they were delivered because of signature confirmation (of one of their postman) but I never saw them. The company has been less than helpful about replacing or reordering. First bad experience I’ve had through Amazon, fortunately they weren’t anything very expensive.

5 Stars TESTED THESE CABLES and the PASSED
I recently had the opportunity to test these HDMI cables with equipment

running at 1080p 60Hz with HDCP 148.5MHz The results were very positive.

Please note that success at 1080p depends on a lot of factors including quality

of TMDS transmitters, receivers, and anything you might have connected to the

cables like HDMI switches, repeaters, HDMI>DVD adapters, etc., therefore these

test results should be taken as a data point and not as a guarantee the cables

will be problem free @ 1080p with your specific equipment.

For example, during initial testing I had discovered through process of elimination

that one of the HDMI>DVI adapters I was using could not reliably pass 1080p. At

first I thought the cables were the issue, but after switching out the adapters, the

cables worked great.

Also please note, even though some of these cables are listed as only 1080i certified,

they did nevertheless pass 1080p without issues for the equipment combination I used.

See this post for what was tested at the factory:

http://www.avsforum.com/avsvb/show…4&&#post6953664

The process of listing a cable as passing visual inspection involved looking at black

screen for 30 seconds to detect sparkles, then watching video for 1 minute to detect

additional artifacts.

Sharp LC45GX6U is a 1920×1080 LCD display which accepts 1080p and 1080p/hdcp when

devices are connected directly to the panel, bypassing the external video processor.

Hope you find this information useful.

5 Stars Cheap but Ultra High Quality Cable from Monster-Cable-N-More
These are well made cables and at a CHEAP price. I dont know how they can sell such quality made cables at such a low price but somehow they do, and Im glad. With Fast shipping, I got the 3 cables I ordered quickly and as Advertised.

Really, you would have to be a complete Idiot to throw a Hundred Plus on some Way overpriced Monster Cable Garbage that uses lots of False advertising to get suckers to fall for it. Guess what, these cables are also Lifetime Warranty, not like youll ever need to worry about it. Stores like to display Side By Side Test Displays, and show one with Monster Cable in use and the other with a Generic cable, and of course the one using Monster is BETTER. What most people dont notice is that the picture on the Generic Cable Display and been purposely screwed up to look bad, or whats even better, they use a Composite connection on the Generic HDTV Display, (which means its not even showing a HD Picture) and a HDMI connection on the Monster setup. Most people arent going to try and see the cables and the hookups that are behind out of sight.

You could buy one of these new cables every year, for YEARS before you ever caught up to the price of buying a single Monster (Rip-Off) cable. HDMI is also a DIGITAL signal, as in 1s and 0s being passed though the cable, or as in On/Off, Power, No power. You either get a picture or you dont. Its not like a Analog single were the picture can get worse and worse.

5 Stars Works like a charm
I just bought the cable. I use it to connect my MacBook Pro with my Sony HD Bravia. Works perfect.

3 Stars PS3
I bought this cablt to hook my ps3 up to my hitachi HDTV. I read a bunch of articles on wether it will work to hook up a ps3 to a DVI port. Some said yes and some said no, so I thought I would take a chance. It did not work, but for the price I paid for the cable it is not worth it to return.

5 Stars This product works
This product does exactly what you’d think it would do – send video hmdi-dvi or vice versa. I don’t think cables can exceed expectations, its a cable. Its 10 feet long. It works. It has fufilled its destiny. It works and is cheap, 5 stars.

5 Stars MacBook to HDTV
I used this to connect a MacBook to a Sony HDTV. Bought the adapter for the MacBook from Apple and this cable . . . works like a charm. The images on the Sony are fantastic. Price was right and very speedy shipment.

1 Star Horrible Cable
Horrible cable. Died after i used it once. I tried using it a 2nd time and did not work.
