HDMI Cables
Someone recommended I use WireWorld cables.
Man obviously I am a bit of a newbie cause I would not expect to pay $100-500 for (1) HDMI cable.
I just looked them up and there are several types! Plus they are freaking pricey! Is this the cost of being an audiophile! I cannot skimp on the cabling?!!! LOL…!!!
Hoping there are other options?
There's are WIREWORLD's pricing!
Island 7 = $26.00
Chroma 7 = $46.00
Ultraviolet 7 = $100.00
Starlight 7 = $170.00
Silver Starlight 7 = $270.00
Platinum Starlight 7 = $500.00
WOW… anything above Chroma is a push for me! I guess someone school me on the importance and if I really need to shell out more than $50 bucks a cable.
Or someone tell me there are cheaper alternatives that will provide the same results!
THanks ladies and gentlemen!

Thx-333...the reason I recommended Monoprice was that I did a HDMI shootout about 3-4 years ago. I had HDMI cable from Audioquest, Kimber, Monster, Cardas, and several others with retail prices up to around $400. The Monoprice Redmere HDMI cable was the winner! This wasn't a scientific test or anything, but 8 different people helped with the evaluation over a couple of month period. Either the Monoprice was better or you really couldn't tell the difference. For $10, it's a no brainer. Keep us posted as to your choice and how you like it. |
