I hooked up component cables from my cable box too and froze the screen and made a comparising by switching input sources on my tv. I have a brand new Samsung hdtv 1080p so I wanted to transfer the best picture from my cable box and home theatre receiver to my tv so I bought two of these thinking they are 1.3 certified so it must be the same as spending top dollar right, well i was dead wrong. very obvious to me.

Then I changed the channel for another comparising and just happened upon Dr.Phil. I just purchased monster component cables for my blu ray.

Since I (like most people) never watch identical televisions side by side the real question lies in whether one HDMI cable improves the picture enough that it is discernable without viewing the pictures simultaneously. With this in mind I used the following equipment to test the cables: Television: Sony Grand WEGA KDS-55A2000 55-Inch SXRD 1080p Rear Projection HDTV Cables: 1. / 2.43 m).

My first inclination when I received this cable, was to attempt to do a side-by-side comparison of various HDMI cables to determine what benefit, if any the various cables provide.

If money will buy me a significantly better product I have no trouble forking out the money - but the opposite is also true. Works perfectly. My husband, a faithful Monster user, couldn't tell the difference when I tested this and a Monster cable. If I can get it cheaper, I will, and this is a perfect example.
