If are interested in Monster cables, visit this website: Cable4HT.comAll Monster cables are selling at bargain price. 100% genuine Monster cables.

QUOTE(Thrust @ Nov 28 2009, 09:31 AM) Yes, you've got ripped off. I never buy things from SenQ electrical chain store as their price are quite pricey. SenQ was suppose to target the upper market & that is why they changed their name from SenHeng. omg....this sucks.....and yea... i should hv do some research 1st....its my 1st hdmi cable..-.-"

Honestly i am using the Sharp hdmi cable given to me foc when i bought the Sharp LED LCD tv, i feel that its the older model hdmi cable, thats why i ask the version of the hdmi question.Any other method of testing the cable version, please enlighten.

Sharp or Pioneer, i found out nowadays, they are giving low quality HDMI cables. Initially, i cant use the cable given by Pioneer, it can't syn properly with my AVR. Then i bought a Belkin HDMI ver 1.3b for only RM 55. it work fine with much better PQ.

If this the TV setting or notebook setting? Any way to fit all into the TV screen? Turn off the overscan on ur display. What TV do u have? Selecting the correct aspect ratio will also help.
