| Why are your HDMI cables so cheap?
We buy all of our cables in bulk, balancing several different suppliers to
give you the best possible price. Also, you are not paying for any fancy
packaging, just a quality cable. Will my picture quality suffer compared to
a more expensive cable? No. An HDMI signal is a digital
signal. As with any digital signal, you either get it or you dont.
You cannot get a fuzzy picture from a bad cable, like you can with analog
cables. Saying an expensive HDMI cable will make your picture quality better is like saying an
expensive USB cable will make your printer print better photos. It is just not true.
When should I spend more on a better cable?
If you are running a signal over 5 Meters, or you are running through several
adapters or switches, it may be beneficial to buy a better quality cable.
If an HDMI signal is run too far, you can get bit errors, which show up as
sparkles in the picture. Our premium cables have larger internal wires
and better shielding to preserve the signal over long distances.
Amplifiers may also be necessary when going extremely long distances. When
should I pay $99.99 for a cable from the local chain store?
Never. Save your money. |
