Over the past few years, HDMI has become the standard audio and video connection for high-definition home theater gear. Most new High Definition televisions have at least two HDMI inputs, and gadgets such as DVRs, DVD players, Blu-ray players, game consoles (Play Station, XBOX etc…) , and computers feature HDMI outputs to deliver audio and video. Having a single cable handling both images and sound has the potential to make home theaters much simpler, but that's not always the case. Faced with complex standards (HDMI 1.2 vs. 1.3), confusing buzzwords (Deep Color), and exorbitantly priced cables (Monster), many buyers may be tempted to throw up their hands and stick with the analog cables they know. Don't worry, all you need to know is that our cables are as good as the most expensive out there and that there is no reason that you should pay more! HDMI stands for High-Definition Multimedia Interface, and that's a pretty accurate description of what it is. HDMI is a type of digital connection that's capable of transmitting high-definition video and high-resolution audio over a single cable. To do the same thing with analog cables, you'd need to connect three component-video cables plus six analog audio cables--that's a whole lot of cable clutter. HDMI is typically used to connect a high-definition device--such as an HD DVR--to an HDTV. To make the connection, you simply put one end of the cable into the HDTV's HDMI input slot and the other end into the device's HDMI output slot. And that's it--just one cable and you're all set for the high-definition experience. If you have an AV receiver, just put it in the middle of the signal chain. The output of the AV receiver goes to the HDTV and you connect your high-definition device(s) to the AV receiver's input.   Expensive cables aren't worth it! If you walk into your typical electronics / big box store to buy an HDMI cable, you will almost certainly see prices upward of $50 with promises of superior performance and faster speeds. Do you really need to spend that much money on a single HDMI cable? Absolutely not--those cables are a rip-off. You should never pay more than $10 for a standard six-foot HDMI cable. And despite what salesmen and manufacturers might tell you, there's no meaningful difference between the $10 cable and the $50 cable. No cable can make the picture any better or any worse.
