The best low priced HDMI cable...Sony Flat DLC-HD18HFW from WalMart. The best on the market that I have tried...WireWorld Silver Starlight 5.2

Dave Schulte of the Upgrade Company did some tests with 1 and 2 meter HDMI cables last summer. From these tests they found out that 2 meter cables performed far better vs 1 meter cables. The best performing HDMI cable from these tests was the WireWorld silver starlight 5.2
From Dave Schulte, the technical explanation why 2 meter length is better than 1 meter length is that there is tremendous ringing produced by the short length, the 2 meter length creates a "delay line" so that when the signal bounces at the end, which invariably occurs, it does not come back so fast as to disturb the signal being sent at the begining of the cable... After you get a hdmi cable like a Wireworld silver starlight 5.2 the law of diminishing returns sets in.
If you replace the stock cords on your video gear (HDTV's too) with better cables, you will see the differences with HDMI cables more....
The very best power cable I have ever used with video gear is diy CryoMax 3 cable from cryo-parts with Oyaide p/c 004 ac connectors...
