Customer Review: HDMI v1.3 compliant, honestly priced
Summary: 5 Stars
This is probably the best deal you can get for a Category 2 HDMI v1.3 cable, given that it qualifies for Amazon's free shipping and, therefore competes on price with the $3 offers that charge for shipping. Just in case someone may feel guilty for not paying a lot more for, basically the same thing, let's look at our top of the line offer, Monster HDMI 1000HD Ultra-High Speed HDMI Cable (2 meters) and do a quick comparison.
This item supports the HDMI 1.3 standard which is almost as good as it gets. Any HDMI 1.3 cable can carry up to 10.2 Gbit/s. The Monster cable too "guarantees a certified cable bandwidth of 10.2" The Monster also supports "x.v.Color, and Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD" and it turns out that, all of the above, and more, are part of the HDMI 1.3 specs and they are fully supported by every cable that complies to the standard and can be had for about 90% less. The expensive brand presentation simply enumerates the HDMI 1.3 specs as if it being HDMI 1.3 compliant was a really big deal. It is not a big deal. This cable is equally compliant and it costs about 90% less.
My suggestion: if you think that the proponents of the expensive brand have a point when they claim that their product is a lot more durable, buy TWO Cables To Go wires and still pay almost 80% less than you would pay for one of the expensive ones.
My personal experience: I've never paid 'a lot' for an HDMI cable because it makes no sense to pay more. I took home one of the 'expensive' ones once because the salesman promised to take it back if I wasn't amazed by the difference. It made zero difference and I returned it.
The following are the HDMI 1.3 specs and all certified HDMI 1.3 cables (including Monster) are going to support them.
Maximum signal bandwidth (MHz) 340
Maximum TMDS bandwidth (Gbit/s) 10.2
