Things to consider before you buy speaker cables.
Article by Cable Shark
Speaker cables are very significant element of your sound system and they are as important as your speaker setup. It is not easy to believe that speaker cable quality makes a huge difference in the performance of your speaker setup. To check the reality about the performance, buy speaker cables of superior quality and feel the difference yourself. Cables you use can have a clear impact on the total sound quality of your music system. Even the most expensive and high-end speakers would not sound melodious with cheap and low-quality cables.
It is true that the technology used in the manufacturing of speaker cables has not enhanced to a great extent since the time when first speakers came into view in the market. There is a range of quality of speaker cables in the market and therefore there are differences in performance due to the use of different quality speaker cables. The design and the raw material used have not made a significant improvement for speaker cable performance to have much impact on the quality. The most important feature in quality of speaker cables is the raw material used to produce them. A high-end cable must be made of an excellent wire material, which has least amount of signal loss and reduce attenuation.
Three parameters which decide the quality of a cable are resistance, capacitance and inductance, and ultimately affect the performance of speaker cables. The two commonly used materials in manufacturing of speaker cables are silver and copper.
Concluding parameter in the quality of a cable is conductivity. Silver has a better conductivity compared to copper. Conductivity is inversely proportional to the resistance of the wire, so with greater conductivity the signals get less attenuated. It also provides a much better signal response. Silver is expensive as compared to copper but there are cheaper solutions available, for instance, copper wires are used with silver plating to get the desired results.

No negatives, good value,
Briefly: right length for most uses, right price, certified HDMI 1.3/Cat 2 and a ‘super savers’ item (free shipping when ordering over $25 worth of Amazon merchandise). Can’t get much better than this.
Given the 1 yr. warranty promise and the ability to easily return the wire to Amazon if you get a defective item, I see no ‘negatives’.
[Anyone remembers the old "I am not going to spend a lot for this muffler" commercial?]
The 3-6 ft. are the optimum lengths to connect most electronics. I am actually using 3 ft. cables whenever the connected devices happen to be very close to each other because, when it comes to cables, shorter is almost always better
.
Just in case someone may feel guilty for not paying a lot more for a premium brand, it should be stated that at these lengths – 3-6 ft., you will get as good a service from a no-brand cable as you would from a super-expensive rip-off. An HDMI 1.3x cable should be able to carry, error free, all the signal your electronic equipment may put out. In fact, you can buy one or 2 extra ‘cheap’ cables, just in case. At these prices they’re easily affordable.
The FUD campaigns, trying to attract buyers toward the more expensive brands make a series of claims. I will address them, as they may apply to this specific cable.
- Signal attenuation is less over a more expensive cable. – TRUE, BUT that’s irrelevant on a 3-6 ft. length. The HDMI consortium stated that even the cables that were not ‘certified’ as ‘Category 2′ or ‘High-Speed’ will meet the requirements at lengths of 6 ft. or less. At 3-6 ft., it would be a waste to consider an ‘expensive’ alternative. In addition, the newer devices have sufficient processing power and are sensitive enough to properly interpret even the more ambiguous ‘digits’ they receive. Incidentally, the vendor claims that this specific item WAS certified as ‘category 2′ and HDMI 1.3a.
- The expensive cables are better engineered and their contacts are less likely to break. – TRUE, BUT how many times is one going to plug/unplug an HDMI cable in and out of an HDMI socket over the cable’s lifetime? 5 times? 10 times? The ‘better engineered’ claim has no practical importance. If your cable works on ‘day one’ the odds are that it will be left in the back of your box for many months or years before it is unplugged and plugged back in. If this cable is purchased for home use, the ‘better engineered’ claim should not be of a major concern.
- The more expensive cables are ‘future proof’. – NOT TRUE. Claims are made that, if you buy the more expensive wires you won’t have to buy new ones when ‘new standards’ emerge because the more expensive wire will support them. This is untrue on 2 different levels. First, your cheap cable was purchased to work with some very specific devices which need HDMI 1.3 and will never support the ‘new standard’. The new standards will be supported by new electronic devices but, for as long as you keep the existing ones, you will still need this cable to connect them. Second, the emerging HDMI 1.4 specs call for new features such as an Ethernet channel and an audio return channel, both of which can’t be supported by the existing HDMI 1.3 cables so, no matter how large a bandwidth the existing expensive cables may support, it won’t matter because you still won’t able to use them if you are to take full advantage of an HDMI 1.4 device so… there goes your $5 invesment or… your $200, depending on your having purchased a ‘cheap’ or a ‘top of the line’ HDMI cable.

|Great Cable, Better Price,
I bought three of these cables and have used two so far. I put them both on Panasonic Viera Plasmas. One is 50″ the other is 42″. The HD picture on both is incredible. The cables work as advertised.

|Great price, great cable,
HDMI being what is it, it is hard to rate picture quality, it either works or it dosen’t, and this cable works. Don’t go to bestbuy and spend $100 on a HDMI cable, get one of these.
