Wireworld Silver Starlight


Hey Audiogoners,

Looking to upgrade my HDMI cable. I want to stay under $350 (USED, NEW, DEMO) for a 1m. Well, my budget led me to the Wireworld Silver Starlight. How do these fare to the Audioquest comparable in price (i.e. Vodka)?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. You guys always steer me in the right direction.

Ozzy - I just ordered the 3ft Ultra Slim from Monoprice to try on my Oppo 103D - Samsung Plasma. I'm curious to see if it's better than the PS Audio I2S-12 solid silver HDMI cable. It gave better video than the WireWorld Silver Starlight 5-2.

Simao - why do you keep repeating yourself?

All others - having experienced it myself I know there's a big difference in video (and audio) quality among HDMI cables. If you have experienced this difference, why not ignore the trolls who haven't?
Glaucon - wow, bringing out the troll label for someone who's simply a skeptic. Whatever. Keep plugging away at your little HDMI world.

Apparently, these guys are trolls, too:

Ozzy -

I ordered the 18Gbps version, 3ft Ultra Slim, and just hooked it up. Well, it's certainly eye-popping - really bright and saturated colours. Maybe a little too much fine detail - I may have to recalibrate the Darbee setting on my Oppo 103D. So far, very impressed. I do plan to do ABA just to be sure, after some burn-in.

Simoa - yes, cables need to burn-in. Please don't bother to respond if you haven't experienced this yourself. Obviously the rest of us are just blind inhabitants of the HDMI world, and we're happy for you to stay away.
I've had the 18gbps verion installed for about a week now on my Bluray player (put the second on the cable box today) and it does offer better detail,saturation and a contrast over the previous Monoprice (Redmere) active cable. I did lower the saturation by 1 and love the overall improvement. And these evaluations were confirmed by a Spears & Munsil test disc!i still plan on a testing a Wire World for audio as an Appolo Lighting v2 did have a great picture but the Audio wasn't as good as the Pangea in my setup!

Thanks for the good recommendation Ozzy!
