Whats Included

AudioQuest Cherry Cola 18Gbps 33' Active Optical HDMI Cable

Q: Why on earth would anyone pay this price? I bought a 100 foot hdmi cable from Wallymart for $39... it works fine... I wanted to be able to watch TV in my pool house, but didn’t want to rent a separate cable box... works through a splitter!

A: Best Buy is not helping to shut down crazy pricing!

Q: $700 and it died after 3 years. DOES WARRANTY REPLACE THIS??? Cannot bring it in as all cables enclosed behind walls … after 3 years now need to pay to rip open walls again, patch, repaint, and hire tech to reprogram all related media room equipment.

A: undefined

Q: Is this hdmi version 2.1 for ultra fast dynamic HDR, delivering 48 Gbps?

Way over priced not seeing any benefits
I was told by a Best Buy employee that my HDMI cable, going from my reciever to my projector was having a handshake issue and should be upgraded to this insanely priced AudioQuest cable. This meant pulling out my old 33 ft, $150 cable from the ceiling and walls and running this new $800 cable through the same spots. Fishing it through the walls and ceilings took several hours. Finally got it all hooked up and it didn't solve the problem. It ended up being a defective HDMI port it the projector. I wasn't about to rip the HDMI cable back out of the walls to fish the old one back through so now I'm stuck with one that cost over 5 times what my original HDMI cable cost. And it was just fine. I see no benefits to this AudioQuest Cherry Cola HDMI cable over my old Rocketfish cable, which is now just sitting in a closet. I used Monoprice cables before that and they worked fine as well. I saw no visual differences and heard no audible differences between any of the cables.

Must have for 8k
Must have for quality 8k video. Pricey, but makes the most of expensive 8k televisions.

Purchased this to keep HDR
Had another brand HDMI cable but no HDR due to length of the cable run. I purchased this cable because my in-wall run was over 25ft and you loose HDR with regular cables after 15ft. Expensive for cable but Very satisfied with the purchased. Picture quality is amazing.
