I think we talked about this millionth time already.

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.

Yup, matrix. But for DTS-ES Discrete on DVD it is 6.1 with all discrete channel.

RX is a lonely guy now. Don't try to upset him.

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

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.

I'm using cap ayam HDMI cable bro. But analogue cables I try to get the best. I use this for my sub:

I thought that Solehah is a she?

I don't know, some posted here before saying it's a she, can't remember who. never mind lah.

Yup, only one. But still cheap right?

You'll receive your package within one week. My last order valued more than RM800, not tax or whatsoever. Just like Amazon UK, Royal Mail does excellent job. But it's more secured because this one you need to sign for it when it arrives.

Even from FutureShop?

When I received mine, it was like a registered post. Need signature. My Amazon UK standard Royal Mail delivery no need to sign.

Mine was registered bro, had to sign for it.

ALPS2008, they don't ship on weekends I believe. And yup, the Pos Malaysia will deliver it to you.

You must have patience, Luke. Don't fall to the dark side as I did.

Maybe tomorrow bro.

See? Got to sign for the package. So it's more secure, the posmen can't just leave it on the mailbox.

Where are you getting the BDs for RM40-50 bro? Care to share?

Just don't cut queue ar bro.

I thought you meant an online retailer. Everybody knows eBay, and we all know we won't get the best price all the time. Usually the cheapest is around RM70-80. RM40-50 is very rare, and usually only low-rated titles. Even that link you provided will cost RM60 already.

Another thing, be careful when buying BDs from UK, make sure it's region free before buying.

Guys, read through the pages of this thread. It has been discussed many, many times in this thread, and many other threads. Even in the Audiophilia Objective thread. HDMI is digital. Signal sent is in binary numbers of 0 and 1. Picture or audio quality will not be affected, either you get the signal or not. That's all. The only thing to look for is the physical built quality, durablility, etc.

If we're talking about analogue cables, then yes, different cable could actually bring some difference. What's still debatable is how much improvements each analogue cable can bring versus the price you pay.

You guys are taking advice from cable manufacturers/sellers. They wanna sell their cables!

Fine, in the end it's your money and your eyes/ears. If you can see/hear the difference, good for you.

Check my sig, I will buy the highest end stuff I can afford, and I'm still eager to upgrade. I'm willing to spend more on analogue cables, interconnects and speakers cables. But nope, sorry, not gonna waste on digital cables.

Search and research smartly, don't take everything the salesman telling you.

Like I always say, in the end you'll be the one spending the money. Other than the internet, search and research hands-on where you can see and hear. We're here just to share knowledge and experience.

We all know how length can attenuate the signal (this can still be solved by using a booster actually).

Those expensive brands passed the 5m test probably because their cables uses better technology to maintain the bandwidth longer. However, all the expensive "high quality" brands still failed the test at 10m.

So that’s about it. At standard 2m length, all of them, cheap or otherwise, passed the test. Now, anyone still want to RM1k for a 2m HDMI cables?

PS: Everyone should know by now, there's no such thing as future-proof. We're already talking about a whole new digital display cable now, supposed to be capable of 2160p resolution, the DisplayPort.

I'm only using 2 and 3 meter HDMI cables only because I don't use a projector. Some forumers here use quite a reliable long one but really affordable. Htkaki should know it.
