What cables to use.


From my tv to my powered bookshelf speakers ( about 15 feet away ) is hdmi better then optical cable for audio in this case?

15’ should not be a problem for a decent HDMI cable.

I’ve used a 30’ Monoprice a few times to directly connect our Internet modem to the cable box (usually run WiFi, but it craps out from time to time) and it worked fine.

This said, our previous and current TV cap out @ 1080P, and like I said I’m not picky about TV (it just needs to look/sound OK).

Amazon has a 15’ hdmi for $16.99 with a 10% off coupon that should do the trick.

All the best.

I'm using an 15meter 8k Fiber Optic HDMI 2.1 cable from my Oppo BDP105 to my TV.  Works great.
