benchmark it against v1.3 cable, if you fell like old cable is missing something, then don't use the old cable.
according to wiki page, even version 1.0 can support video up to 1920x1200p60

if you are interconnecting high end av-receiver/full HD panel/blue-ray player, then you would want to make sure you are using v1.3 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.

Where did u buy it. tq

Sorry bro. I didn't know you took that joke so seriously.

I think you should be able to tell the counterfeit cable by looking at it. It cannot be exactly the same.

I haven't seen the fake one before, so I can't tell you the difference.

To be safe, avoid buying M1000HD HDMI cables at very low prices.

Buy from a reputable sellers (like me wink.gif) to ensure you are getting the real thing.

All the Monster cables I'm selling are 100% genuine.

That should be the way as a reseller answer a question, anyway thanks for the reply. To be frank i saw my friend bought a M1000HD HDMI monster cable n he ask me to try to figure out whether its fake or original.I really cant figure out which is which even by going to the web site to find more details still i dont see its fake becos seems to me everything the same n he even test on his avr n seem performing better than his normal HDMI 1.3 cable but the price he pay for is only RM230 then only i suspect it might be fake, but the test, the cable the box i seem really cant tell its fake or original. To me it might be fake or original i cant tell. Thats why i am asking sifu here how to figure fake or original. Since u are the forefront Monster cable reseller u might enlighten us more ( DigitalTech )

i think this statement is wrong, if one is confident the expensive monster HDMI are ori's then a retailer can play the trick import fake and repriced to Orinal prices.

That is another problem, even if we trust the retailers, ( how do we know the retailers themself are not conned to be getting fake ones as originals ) as you yourself commented so.... how do retailers know they are not getting fakes as well...

Is there an assuarance, certificate of guarantee that its an QRIGINAL ??? or maybe any serial Numbers??
so if one really insist in getting expensive Original's will really be assured they invested in an original...

You got a very strong point of view there bro, thats why i am asking how do we know fake or original, until now there is no straight forward answer. Moreover i was surprise my friend bought one n we really cant tell its fake or original becos there is nothing like serial no or some special marking to check on it. Only surprise is the price but that doesnt mean its fake also.

Let me give my story of this HDMI cable, well i was given foc Sharp HDMI cable when i bought my Sharp led lcd tv, before i start using it i am worry it wont work on bluray player as state by so n so becos my cable is version 1.2 confirm by Sharp technical people, but after i got my bd disc with the DTS master audio on n set 12bits signal deep color 4-4-4 everything was fine nothing unusual, from the early thread somebody show the chart that version 1.2 wont support 10 bit signal, n DTS m/a n DD true HD, but i have been using for days now everything is still fine, so my question is how come 1.2 wasnt suppose to support certain thing but still do. How to explain this n i nearly went to buy 1.3 version of the cable.
