What is the best to get? I've been checking this one out
HDMI Cable

And should I get one for my PS3, 360, HTIB, and anything else Hi-Def or should I just switch them up?

*anybody have their HDTV wall mounted? I'm looking into getting my bedroom 32" wall mounted, but I'm kinda don't want some Best Buy or Circuit City geek doing it. Especially for $300.

The best one is the cheapest and shortest length imo.

I have the monster one. People are going to say that the 1 dollar ones are the same thing but when I hooked it up to my Sony LCD I had two cables, one being a Monster and one being a Rocketfish from Best Buy, the monster definetly looking better, not by a landslide, but you could see more details. yeah the prices on monster is ridiciolous but lifetime warranty plus best shielding=worth it in my opinion.

The price highly over weighs the minute difference imo.

If your willing to buy a good TV and spend at least 1500, its better off getting a cable that gives you better picture quality, if not whats the point of buying a expensive TV.

Plus just about all monster cables you can run in the back of your walls if you mount it and want to hide the cables, most of those cheapies will cause a fire.

I spent 1500 for my sharp aqous 46'' 1080p and i'm fine with the cheap cables. To me there just isn't much of a difference.

There's actually a field test that Monster cable is no better than the cheaper ones. I'll post the link when I find it. The link that I provided for HDMI cables are reliable companies and it's what most enthusiast use in their home theater.


Monster cable is like Bose, it's all marketing and pricing rather than it's actual specs.

what is the best way of hiding cables for a wall mounted tv other than busting holes in the walls?
