HDMI Cable Brands Don't Matter

Love my BJ cables.

Good questions. Same goes for the old argument of Interconnects. Yes every el cheapo cable will send a signal from one end to the other. But how good is the connection and build.

But as oppose to old argument of Interconnects, the HDMI signal is digital which mean the signal will either get thru or it won't. They did mentioned that higher priced HDMI cables were better quality build than cheaper ones (like having lower gauage center wires), but they said as long as signal is passed, it is irrelevent.

Problems occur over longer distances, and that's where you do see some variation between cables.

That is exactly right. They say if HDMI cable is going to be over 10 feet, then should consider higher quality cables as they provide better shielding, lower guage wires and higher bandwidth.

I usualy don't post here, but I have to chime in. I purchased a 25ft HDMI thru Amazon for $1.76 and have been using it for months on my HD projector. I don't see any difference from this cable to the smaller 3 foot $23.00 cable I also use.

Although I still beleive there is a big difference in speaker wire and component cables, I don't think HDMI cables from 2 dollars to hunderds, which I've seen make that much difference.

Wow! Do they look different now. Man you just stirred up some emotions for me.

After riding my beloved '75 Norton Commando for many years, I got tired of dealing with the Lucas Electronics that were temper-mental. I sold it to the owner of a bike dealership and bought a brand new original Intruder 750 as below in black.

I was riding it for about an hour each morning before going to work to break it in and get used to it. Shaft Drive is soooo different than a slapping chain. Anyway, day 6 of owning my first ever New bike, I rode for my hour and as I was preparing to turn into the lot of where I worked, I got plowed from behind by an uninsured-uninspected free loader female from North Philly.

The cops impounded my bike instead of letting my co workers put it in the shop right there because the cops were in bed with the towing impound company and it cost me to get it out. They left the woman drive away and continue to drive that vehicle.

Since I got run down by a drunk driver at 7am back in '79 on my old 250 BSA, then number two, that was the last day I ever rode and boy do I miss it. Just not real safe anymore in congested areas. Be very careful and enjoy!

I guess we're kinda hijackin' this thread.

They sure have gotten bigger. I stand 6'4" so I need a large frame size which the Suzi has one of the largest available. It sucks to be hit like that, especially by one without insurance. No accounting for bad drivers so one really has to be aware and always have an escape route available.

Right now I just ride to and from work (all highway cruising) and long slow rides in the evening and weekends. I try to stay out of traffic areas as much as I can. Riding safe is good for my old bones.

Nuthin' like riding on a nice sunny spring day.

Now back to our regular programing.......

Sorry one last thing on bikes,people just don't seem to respect them anymore.I remember in the '70s other drivers sort of backed off from bikes,not anymore.You have to have eyes in the back of your head now when riding a bike.I had to sell my Virago,I could not take the chance of getting hit by someone with no insurane or money and maybe killing me or not being able to work again.I almost got hit three times in one day and that was it for me.Be very careful my friend,Good looking bike too.
