Re: HDMI Cables Brand Differences ???

It is always good to buy a quality cable, but it should not be necessary to buy some overprices stuff with gold, diamonds and other gems. HDMI is a digital interface and bits and bytes wont be happier if you have a good quality cable with a fair price or a overpriced "deluxe" cable.
When the interface between DVD Player and TV was analog there was a great difference between high end calbes and normal stuff...
