Recommendations for HDMI cables specifically for audio quality

I want to replace the analogue cables from my OPPO Blu ray 203 to a Denon AVC X8500 with an HDMI cable and improve or equal the SQ. Suggestions would be welcome. I have checked previous posts and most of them are a few years old now and an update may be required Please and Thank you

Can you expound on the WW Silver Starlight 7 HDMI ? How did you implement this cable in your system?  Audio playback or Video playback?  I am enjoying the WW Silver Starlight 5.2 for BR/DVD playback only.

 

Happy Listening!

Try looking into this before getting a new cable:

The Mapleshade Vivlink v3 Plus will leave almost all competing HDMI cables in the dust for only $240 USD. Look up who the engineer was that designed it.

The only negative is the fragile construction, like all Mapleshade products (this is by design).

Its also improves HDMI video quality to a noticeable degree.

@agisthos The Vivilink looks interesting, but I’m surprised they only offer a 2m length.  It’s well know it’s best to keep HDMI cables as short as possible because the technology wasn’t designed for distance and the signal degrades quickly the longer the length. Maybe they’d be open to making a shorter cable?
