I think we talked about this millionth time already. laugh.gif

For HDMI, it's digital, each cable should be the same. Maybe look for material/built quality to last longer.

For analogue signals (composite, s-video, speaker cables), cable plays big role. This one don't get cap ayam one. It will affect you PQ/AQ.

How about the one Digitaltech sales one - HDMI cable??? hmm.gif hmm.gif

Good or not......if that one directly connect to AVR....will the sound better than digital cable (eg. Coaxial or optical)
and later from AVR to TV

Still not decide yet...dunno want to order or not.....cost ..a bit high end HDMI cable hmm.gif hmm.gif hmm.gif

I have one cable already...but now the HDMI cable connect directly to TV and DVD player now connect using coaxial to AVR.

If using HDMI to AVR, then I need another one la......one to AVR and one out from AVR to TV...

Thinking want to invest or not..if no sound different.....

Remember this is just DVD only......the best DVD I can get is just 6.1 channel which DTS ES

rclxms.gif support this~ digital all the way.. if only my speakers have hdmi in.. then no more hassle of getting out-of-this world priced analogue wires for them.. id rather pay for speakers with built in soundcard+hdmi ins than wires....

For dvd, u can also get 7.1 channel sound..using DTS-ES or DD Ex using coaxial.

But that is using the AVR decoder to expand the back surround sound... wink.gif

Fentanyl, I bought my cables from FutureShop.co.uk, very good service, your order will be shipped the next day. thumbup.gif

I've tried to order from Cable-Shop.co.uk, they took 3 to even process, by the fourth day, the transaction in my Paypal still pending. So I decided to cancel.

ALPS2008, after you selected your shipping address outside of EU, the 17.5% VAT will be voided, so it will be cheaper. Before that, or before you login, the price is with VAT.
