HDMI Cable
Choose a gold HDMI cable because gold is a metal which offers least resistance to electricity. Gold HDMI connectors will connect your HD TV equipment with better signal connections. Gold does not corrode/tarnish. Tarnish on the plug and socket pins will create electrical noise and resistance. Remember the cable length. A cable which is too long may pick up on electrical noise from other equipment you have in your HD TV entertainment world.
Cable tidies really help.
Easy to handle cable tidies
There is nothing worse than having to unplug everything just to untangle one unsightly cable. By the time you have all of your HD TV equipment connected you can expect six or more cables.
Which HDMI cable version is best - HDMI 1.3a, HDMI 1.3b or HDMI 1.3c ... what a confusion?
Thankfully, the HDMI version should not matter to you see: HDMI difference between HDMI versions. This is simply technical jargon. All that need concern you is simply HDMI version 1.3a and beyond. The standards are set in version 1.3a of HDMI cabling. Any additional version levels are used internally, by the manufacturer, to show their compliance to test standards.
If the cable quality exceeds your equipment quality then you can end up with problems. Digital cable will perform well and the largest degradation of signal will be on the plug ends. Having gold plated plug ends makes sense but if the cable is fully shielded then it makes the cable bulky, stiff and puts a stress on the HD equipment socket. Move the HD kit in and out frequently and the sockets may break when using a bulky over specified cable. You would have to have lower end quality HD equipment for this to occur.
