Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Cables Unlimited Premium 2 Meter Version 1.3 HDMI Home Theater Cable (PCM229502M)
Customer Review: Simply Excellent!
Summary: 5 Stars
I presently have two of these Cables Unlimited premium HDMI cables in my Audio/H.T. system. One connects my Philips CD/DVD player to the 1080p TV..the other for the HD cable box. Both worked fine on first hookup, and have continued to do so after having been disconnected and reconnected in the course of routing them through cable concealment conduit. Construction and assembly quality is up anything I've seen for as high as $79. They're fully shielded and well jacketed, have gold-plated contacts and molded strain relieved plugs (in 'Gateway Cow' black and white). The digital audio/video signal quality and bandwidth (Ver. 1.3) is exactly the same as the 'big bucks' Monster cable.
To put it simply, they're excellent! As far as I can tell, the only difference between these and the $79 cable is $65. That's more than half the price of a WDTV Live Media Player, so I'm going to reward myself with one for being a clever shopper. Good thing the TV has 3 HDMI inputs; I guess I'm going to need another one of these cables!
Customer Review: Does everything I need it to...excellent for the price.

I have two of these HDMI cables. One connects my Pioneer DV-400V-K Multi-Format 1080p HDMI Upscaling DVD Player to my Samsung HLT5687SAX 56-Inch Slim LED Engine 1080p DLP HDTV. The other connects my Motorola DCT6400 DVR to my Samsung HLT5687SAX 56-Inch Slim LED Engine 1080p DLP HDTV.
I do not transmit audio over HDMI as audio is handled by my non-HDMI-capable receiver, so I cannot speak to the audio quality of this cable. However, I have been using these cables for the last 3+ months and have never had any issue with them. The image quality from my upscaling dvd player is beautiful. Same goes for the 720p content coming from my dvr. I'm very glad I did not spend extra money on more expensive HDMI cables when this cable does exactly what I need it to do.

Before ordering these cables I read all the reviews of every equivalent cable on your site. The product quality is excellent in every respect and I highly recommend them. The new Sony KDL52XBR6 I bought the cables for has a brilliant, razor sharp picture from the HDMI connector on the Directv HD receiver. I haven't bought a Blu-ray player yet, but when I do, I expect to connect it with one of these cables.
Part II: I setup a Sony Blu-ray player using this cable. Both standard and Blu-ray disks play without any imperfections. I am wondering whether all the cable commentary amounts to a hill of beans. I suspect that as long as the connections on each end of the cable are electrically solid any cable will be fine.

Customer Review: Excellent cable for the price
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered this not expecting much more than an inexpensive 1.3-compliant HDMI cable. What showed up and I installed is what appears to be the exact same cable as a $60 Monster premium cable I had already connecting another piece of equipment. I have since ordered two more. The cable, connectors - everything about this cable are EXACTLY the same as the higher end Monster cable except no Monster logo and no Monster price (pun intended).
As for performance, there is nothing wrong with this cable - works great. I have it connected from a 1.3a compliant Toshiba A35 HD DVD to a 1.3a compliant Onkyo SR705 Receiver then up to a 1080p LCD. Picture, sounds, everything is excellent.
Don't waste your money on more expensive cables.
Customer Review: Buy This Cable!!!

I purchased this cable to hook-up my PS3 to my Vizio HDTV and it works awesomely! I knew nothing about HDMI cables until I did some research and took a chance with purchasing this less expensive wire, and I'm so happy that I did. Before purchasing this cable, I used the basic cables that came with my PS3 to hook-up with my TV and the graphics were horrible. I almost spent $50 or more on a different, so-called "high-end" HDMI cable until I saw this wire and took a chance. Now, the graphics of my PS3 and Blu-ray DVD's look just as good as all the display models you see in stores. I couldn't be happier with this cable; my games and DVD's look awesome, I saved God knows how much money, and I'd recommend this cable to anybody. (February 2008).
