The use of higher quality materials could have an impact on signal degradation when approaching the maximum length
of an HDMI cable, but all cables are subject to specified max lengths.
Do expensive HDMI cables make a difference? What should you look for in an HDMI cable? We answer those questions in an easy to follow video, and we have the science to backup our claims.
So, does a $10 HDMI cable make your system look or sound different from a $100 or $1000 cable?
The short answer is "Absolutely not."
The biggest enemy to HDMI cables is length. The longer the cable, the higher quality it needs to be.
For 3-6 feet, you can get by with just about any undamaged cable built to basic HDMI specs. The longer the cable,
the higher quality it needs to be to pass the signal reliably, especially at distances of 25 feet or more.
But, that doesn?t mean that it has to cost $100+ per foot.
