5 Stars Excellent Product
Mediabridge cables are an excellent deal at this price. I’ve seen these cables at hi-fi shops at far higher prices.
First, don’t believe those that claim all HDMI cables are the same. They are definitely not all the same and anybody that would say that does not have even the most basic knowledge about HDMI. There are absolutely significant differences to be found in the various HDMI cables and devices on the market. While I would never suggest someone go out and overpay for a Monster brand cable, you should absolutely make sure you don’t buy a cable that is going to degrade the picture on your new blu-ray equipment in any way. If you do buy one of those cheap cables, they most likely will work fine, but you will most likely never know you that you are not getting the best picture possible from your new 1080p set and blu-ray DVD player. Big differences would however be very apparent should you see a 2nd generation cable next to a 3rd generation cable connected to your new TV. It is even more critical to not buy 2nd generation cables for PS3 gamers.
And separating good cables from bad cables is simple.
The key thing to look for in an HDMI cable is HDMI certification to Version 1.3b. This is the most current HDMI standard and all cables should be made to this standard; but oftem they’re not so you have to make sure the cable is new generation product and not from last year. Version 1.3 addresses certain problems inherent in Version 1.2 and also offers enhancements as follows:
-48-Bit Color Depth - Version 1.3 increases color depth up to maximum 48-bit color as compared to the maximum 24-bit depth of previous versions. Version 1.3 has twice the color depth of 1.2. Particularly important with PS3 as they are Version 1.3 compliant and offer 48-bit color.
-Lip Sync - In a Digital TV, typically the video processing takes more time than the audio. As a result, lip sync can become an issue where it’s noticeable to the viewer, creating an effect similar to that of a badly dubbed movie. HDMI 1.3 provides a method whereby the audio processing times in devices can be automatically adjusted to remove lip sync.
-If you need more reasons to go with Version 1.3, there are many others so I suggest you check the HDMI website.
Whatever you do, don’t buy somebody’s leftover stock from last year. Make sure it is Version 1.3. That one bit of criteria will help you sift through the low end cables out there. I want the best picture I can get. I bought an expensive TV and a blu-ray DVD player and I certainly don’t want my HDMI cable getting in the way of the best picture I can get.
Mediabridge is a premium cable that meets the higher standards of Version 1.3. And this pricing is exceptionally good for this quality cable. There are certainly other cables around that meet this standard as well. But basically, Mediabridge is offering a high quality cable at a great price here.
4 Stars 1.3b Category 2 Super High Speed HDMI Cable ?
Just received this cable. Fast shipping. This is advertised to be 1.3b Category 2 Super High Speed HDMI Cable. 1.3 is stamped on the cable.
Is there a way to tell if this is 1.3b Category 2 Super High Speed HDMI Cable?
5 Stars Excellent Choice and Value for Money
Ok so I am a girl and I am not much of a techie but I didn’t want to spend $100 on an HDMI cable. I came to Amazon and read a lot of the product reviews.
I first purchased the the HDMI cable from ClearAV, it was inexpesive and not the best product. It cost me a little over $4 for the item and S&H. I tested it on my upconverting Panasonic DVD player on 1080i resolution on my 40″ 1080p Samsung LCD TV but it had poor signal quality and the cable was not an HDMI version 1.3. So when I played my DVDs the picture would go on and off and so would the sound and there was a flashing line on my screen. Then I thought maybe I need to get another cable but still was not willing to pay $100.
I continued to do my research and realized that not all HDMI cables were created equal 
So I decided to try my luck again with the MEDIABRIDGE : “Premium 6ft 1.3b Category 2 Super High Speed HDMI Cable - 1080p - PS3 - Blu-Ray.” THIS CABLE IS THE REAL THING : the true HDMI version 1.3b Category 2 certified (whatever that means but sounds like a really good thing) which can be used with blu-ray or PS3 and will give you great 48-bit color. I paid a little under $7 for everything i.e for the item and S&H. The first thing I noticed was that it has the “HDMI” embossed on the cable; might not mean much but I thought it was note worthy. Second, the cable was thick and sturdy unlike the regular one I previously purchased. Third, apparently it’s gold plated, I don’t know how to prove this but it sure looks shiny 
OK so I got the product 2 business days later from MEDIABRIDGE( I was so happy it arrived promptly), I tried it last night and everything was perfect. I didn’t have to wiggle the cable to see if I could get a better signal, audio and picture quality. Just plugged everything in and one, two, we were in business. I even did my Core Secrets workout with all the movements and I still got perfect picture and sound. I should have just paid $2 extra to begin with for a better quality product…take it from me…I’m girl with not much knowledge on such stuff but I know a great product when I see one.
Hopefully it will last me a long time I’m off to do my research on the Play Station console, I am curious to see how much better Blu-Ray picture quality is…no sense in buying an expensive Blu- Ray dvd player when I can just get the game right?
5 Stars Great Product Great Price!
This product caught my attention, because of it’s low price! I was also a little skeptical, because of said low price. I thought I would give it a shot though and I am very happy that I did! It works just as well as my friends Monster cable! It lived up to everything the description said it would. It produces an amazing picture on my 1080p LCD flat panel TV and crystal clear sound on my 7.1 surround sound! I recommend this product to anyone looking for a top quality product for a low low price!
5 Stars VERY HAPPY WITH THIS PRODUCT!
This product is proof that not all HDMI Cables are created equal. I purchased a Mediabridge HDMI cable and another HDMI cable, which was one of the lowest priced HDMI cables on Amazon. The Mediabridge cable was thicker and just felt like it was a better quality product. Mediabridges HDMI cable also delivered a cleaner, more crisp, and color rich picture (the blacks were blacker and the reds and other colors were more vibrant). Definitely worth the extra couple of bucks!
