I need to connect a Sony DVD player to my 1920 x 1080 LED TV.

They both have standard size HDMI sockets - will this cheap cable be suitable or should I buy the super gold plated ones. ;)

As you can imagine I only ever use the cheap cables and never had a problem.

I just clicked on the link!  :Shocked: :Shocked:

Most I've ever paid for one is about A$20

Looks like a decent price for O2-free Cu-coated cabling.

Maybe a couple of pounds overpriced, but still reasonable :snigger:

Cables don't matter much unless you've got the equipment to benefit from it and exceptional sight and hearing that picks up fine details.

On my main system ( which I'm barely there to use ) I run a pair of "Kords" 21% silver with palladium tips which for me were a huge improvement over standard cables, 3D bluray is crisper than ever as is the audio performance.

Those $4000 cables are out of my price range though :crazy1:

I reckon they are 3 pounds 29 p and someone held the 9 down too long! I would imagine Alan already knew that! :evil:

I think I'll wait, until someone writes a review, before getting one.
