Best HDMI Cable for Video

I agree with Sherpa on the Wireworld Silver Starlight 5.2 HDMI cable. If you want the very best this is it! Cheap ones like the Pangea HD-24L ($25) and a bit better the Pangea HD-24PC ($60) work very well if you are looking to save some cash and if you are not going high end.

Some say Crystal Cable HDMI is the best

A friend of mine just got a Tributaries 9 series HDMI cable and its better than my Wegrzyn's HDMI cable!.. for about half the cost!..The Picture on my Pioneer KRP-5500M Plasma LOOKS a little more FILM-LIKE...

Use a 30ft bluejeans hdmi and never a problem. It is through wall...attic...to pj...never a problem even through Carolina summers.

Component video (analog) and HDMI video (digital) are two different beasts.

When using HDMI and TMDS encoded video streams it is impossible for a cable to modify bits from the source to produce an image that looks like what was intended never mind make it look better than another HDMI cable. If the video bits get "flipped" because of a bad cable or a cable the is not made well enough for a long run, you will see "sparklies" if you get an image at all.

Please do due diligence and see how HDMI works before spending serious money on HDMI cables. For a 6' cable you don't need to spend more than $15, if that. You can get Cat 2 certified 25 ft HDMI cables for $50.
