    Inspire HDMI 2 meter 6 foot cable HQ 1080P 1 3b


    These cables are designed to carry digital-only signals from a source to a display. Along with this, digital audio is transmitted over the HDMI cable, making it a versatile alternative to DVI.

    User Ratings and Reviews

    5 Stars Great performance, unbelievable value.
    I used this to connect my PS3 to my 72″ Toshiba DLP and the HD picture is amazing. There is absolutely no reason to by a more expensive cable. The length on this is excellent and it transmits the digital signal flawlessly. Highly recommended.

    5 Stars Great Value — But Pick Your Seller Carefully
    I needed one HDMI cable but decided to get two, figuring I would eventually need another. Out of curiosity, I ordered each from different sellers: ClearAV and Eforcity. They both shipped out the cable quickly (though I got it a day earlier with ClearAV). But the cables were markedly different. The one from ClearAV had thick shielding and a lot of molding around the plugs. It was sturdier than I was expecting. The one from Eforcity was a lot thinner. I didn’t think this would matter until I tried hooking up my HDMI component, a Yamaha DVD player, to my TV, a Bravia 40″ S series. The one from Eforcity would not work after repeated attempts (connecting, disconnecting, checking pins, changing sequence of power cycles, etc.). The one from ClearAV worked without a hitch. I doubt the problem is directly related to the heavier shielding, but it does indicate a generally better constructed cable. I won’t bother returning the cable from Eforcity because the majority of the cost is in the shipping, and they don’t refund on shipping, nor do they pay for replacement shipping (convenient, huh?). Overall, I’m a happy camper. I still spent way less than the $60 my local big box retailer wanted. Just be mindful of who you are ordering from. You will get a 2 meter HDMI cable, but the actual product will vary based on the seller. Obviously my vote goes with ClearAV. The construction quality was far better than I expected, and most importantly it works great.

    2 Stars Good picture. Sound quality bad! :(
    Bought this baby for $5, including shipping from ClearAV. A lot of people seemed very happy with it. I directly connected my PS3 to a 34″ dynex flat screen TV. Picture looks great, but sound quality is bad. Loud noises and certain other noises cause a horrible deep noise (not familiar with terminology) that actually hurts my roommates ears so much that they mute the TV while we’re playing.

    5 Stars Works Great
    You cannot go wrong with this works as great as the one I payed 45.00 for have it hooked to my theatre and hd tv.

    5 Stars Works great!
    Pro: Works great out of the package with my Sharp Aquos 1080p and the Aquos Blu-Ray player setup. Same with my PC setup (displayed full 1920×1080 in 1080p mode)

    Con: None, or maybe too soon to notice?

    Other thoughts: I ordered for a try-out, will definitely order some more.
