HDMI to DVI adapter?

Has anyone tried this? I am hoping it may remedy my delemma with my Sony 1080i CRT that does not have a HDMI input. It is incompatible with several blu-ray players that will only output an HD signal via HDMI (including the Playstation 3.) I would obviously have to run audio cables as well.

Thanks

Anyone have experience with monoprice.com cables? Looking at an hdmi to dvi cable. They have a few inexpensive options. Wondering if anyone has tried these, and if they've seen differences between AWG sizes.

Thanks

very few, even over at AVSFORUM.com have problems with monoprice.

True, it is really hard to accept so much for so little(dollars).

Actually I bought a 25' DVI to HDMI cable from Monoprice and it's very good, originally had a VGA to VGA line from our computer to our 46" HDTV but the pic was lousy, the 25' DVI to HDMI made a world of difference.. I was very suprised at the quality for the price. I'd buy from them again without hesitation..

Did you get the 24 or the 28 AWG? I'm looking at a 15' run.

I have bought at least 30 cables from them and no problems - ranging from cat 6 to analog audio to HDMI.

The do see HDMI/DVI adapters
