Bestest brand for HDMI cables would be in my view simply, MOLEX, cheap, shielded and with good materials, you can't go wrong with them since they bloody wrote the standard for connections in HDMI. Around around 80 will get you a great interconnect from them.

Although finding them might be an issue since only electronics retailers carry them.

Do you really need shielding for HDMI?

IIRC they only specify it for longer ranges and the connectors. Although i'd like to make the point that it is the problem of the signalling itself rather than the evironmentals that make up the bulk of the transmission issue.

Since HDMI is a digital cable, 1m and 100m cable will have no impact in quality? rclxub.gif

As long as the voltage level remain readable. The simplest answer is NO.
