Bargain of the Century - AudioQuest - Diamond 2' High-Speed HDMI Cable - Only $934.99
(Sarcastic) Review:
This HDMI cable is beyond words. I have a 27" 720p Westinghouse, but with this cable I get the visual clarity of a 65" 1080p Bravia. I'm pretty sure the cable bumped up my refresh rate to 240hz because my TV now looks more real than real life. For a couple hundred bucks more I could have gotten the 65.6' cable from AudioQuest, but that's a joke compared to this beauty of a 2 footer. Who needs more than 2 feet anyways? It's not like anyone keeps their PS3/BluRay player that far fom their TV. Immediately upon it's arrival, I watched "Superbabies: Baby Geniuses 2," my favorite movie ever, and nearly fell off my couch with the astonishing detail of the babies faces. The black levels on this are so intense they suck all the light in my house into themselves, and the whites and colors are so vivid that I can't handle watching my TV for more than 16 hours lest my eyes burn away. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/AudioQue...6#BVRRWidgetID It's the first review on the site, lolz.

I did as well, but only because I refuse to move my cd player, which is roughly 3 feet away from my Magnavox.

If you're going to pay as much for the HDMI cable as you do the TV, why not just get a better TV and a more affordable HDMI? The result will probably be better.

That's a lot of money, but I suppose if you want a better digital signal, it's worth it.

What's great about it: Image/Audio Quality, Great Price, Solid Construction What's not so great: That I don't have more TV's to put these cables on I bought 24 of these to connect all my components for my media center, plus a few extra "just in case". These 2ft long cables are a steal at this price, from Best Buy. You won't find a cable this good any cheaper! The reviewer that gave these cables a 1-star rating has obviously never tried the AudioQuest cables in their home theater. If they had, they would have immediately heard and felt the warm, silky glow of audio/video experience immersion coat their brain like hot fudge on a sundae. Definitely recommended, even for budget system builders!

I don't think you understand how great these cables really are. You don't NEED a new TV. These cables produce HD quality picture on whatever they're plugged in to.

The zeroes and ones get there faster and with less loss. Do you know what loss is?
