i go to a hifi shop audition speaker package, the salesman keep insisting that HDMI cable that cost several hundred ringgit sound louder and clearer than cheap HDMI cable

maybe they look at the different feature offer the monster cable variant and think must get the most expensive to get all the features. like the ultra speed version that claim to deliver 120hz performance

i afraid after he open the box i need to buy the cable.

there are many company that sell overprice cable, but monster is just being a a**hole with their legal action and over agressively pushing their product.

TMDS is use by HDMI for error correction.

your company is developing a rival connection to a universally supported connection standard? what port it will be connected to?

there is already HDMI extender using fiber optic, how will this be different, if your entire connection is fiber optic, how does the standard HDMI port accept the optical signal??

looks like according to monster the standard speed only can support DVD and HD broadcast



High speed for 1080p and HD sound



Advance high speed can get ultra high definition 1080p, i dont know there is actually a ultra-high version of 1080p. and theater quality sound? is it better that the HD audio provided by high speed cable???



Ultra high speed is where the claim get even more insane, are they saying 120HZ tv dont work with their other cable, the HD loseless audio only work on this "ultra high speed" cable

why is it my low end cable able to support all these feature ?

that mean can transfer the entire blu-ray content in a few second time, must be future prove for the 8k display to be use with 1 terabyte blu-ray disc

what is the improvement of audio and video when you change to Gold plated?

no, they will sell $2000 wireless receiver that have super duper secret algorithm that enhance the wireless transfer to make you image super sharp and audio super crips.

a good summary on the issue of HDMI cable quality

the monster cable are likely to be much more durable than cheap cable in heavy duty usage also. but for the 99% of home user we just plug in the cable from av receiver or player located just next to the tv and never touch the cable again for years.
