After reading how the Mars Curiosity Rover team decided to go with the AudioQuest Diamond HDMI cable to handle the transmission of data from the Mastcams and Hand Lens Imager I was sold. This is the ONLY HDMI cable that is free from the interference emitted by the Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generator and I figured it would be good enough to connect my new Sony Blu-Ray player and TV while avoiding intereference from my high-powered grow lamps. Unfortunately, the shielding process used in the cable designed to transmit crystal clear images over the 100,000,000 mile trip (14 minutes to transmit) causes severe lip sync issues when used under normal atmospheric conditions here on Earth. Not wanting to let my near $1k investment go to waste I spent hours on AVSForum looking for a solution. Luckily, forum member "NASAROCKS" came to the rescue. He was one of the engineers that worked on the Curiosity Rover imaging system. He instructed me to attach a super ferrous magnet right outside the jacket over the 19th pin. PRESTO - worked like a charm - no more lip sync issues. I am stopping all 529 contributions for my kids college until I have enough to buy additional AudioQuest HDMI cables for my other TV's and my fifth-wheeler RV. Thanks Best Buy and AudioQuest!!

I just graduated for college, and received this cable from a graduation gift from my grandfather, who is in his late 70's and retired from a successful career in business. I was a little skeptical at first (graduated in engineering) but you don't turn down or exchange a gift in my family. To my surprise when I got home and hooked this up to my Xbox, my skepticism immediately disappeared. I was FLOORED not only by the video CLARITY, but by the AMAZING sound quality too. And the black levels. As a previous reviewer alluded to, the black levels really pop up better with this. (I'm using it on my 50" LG INFINIA). So I called him to say thanks, and he said happily that he knew I would like it. I asked him how he knew about them. Turns out that my grandfather recently upgraded to a DVD player (but decided to wait on blu-ray, because he's not convinced it will be the standard going forward. So it's better to wait on that for now.) But these cables will work no matter what the media standard is in the future a couple years from now. So in that way they are "future proof" and will still be under warranty. He bought two for himself (one for his receiver and one for his new DVD player (a SONY), then later went back to get my gift. He said that the gentleman at Best Buy explained that these cables are some of the best you can buy, in many ways superior to the Monster brand, which was at one point thought to be the best. These are even better, way better. People should note that while these cable do cost more than the cheap ones, they are of higher quality. Superior craftsmanship shines through, and give you the assurance and piece of mind of a FIVE year warranty. It's nice to deal with a company that stands behind their product (many other cable companies, don't offer such a warranty). And Best Buy was very helpful with helping my grand-dad. A+++.

I bought 6 of these for my medical office to get the best quality picture out of my Sony KP43t75 as well as my computer monitors. I was a bit apprehensive about getting these because the price is so low and I've always had a "you get what you pay for" mentality. However, the sales man at best buy assured me that when it comes to signal cables, this is truly a best buy! I brought it to my office and to my dismay, they didn't fit into any of the slots on the behind any of the TVs. Luckily, when I went back to best buy, they had an RCA to HDMI converter! For a few more bucks, I was able to use these cables. The black levels on my CRT tv's are very deep, much deeper than any LCD on the market! Thanks Audio Quest! p.s. Best Buy offers a 2 year replacement plan, totally worth it if you've got pets, children, or plants at home!
