Q: QuestionThe Best Buy web page states; AudioQuest - Ocean 10' 4K-8K-10K 48Gbps. But AudioQuests website does not list an 'Ocean' HDMI cable. Is 'Ocean' the correct model name?

Asked 5 years ago by BartC.

• A:Answer That’s bc Ocean 48 is exclusive to Best Buy. To the best of my knowledge the Ocean 48 would fall in between Pearl 48 and Forest 48.

Q: QuestionCan anyone explain difference between Ocean and Pearl line of cables?

Asked 5 years ago by JP.

• A:Answer I don't think there is a difference. The Ocean and Sky variants are Best Buy exclusives. The Ocean is equivalent to the Pearl and the Sky is equivalent to the Forest. If you look at the back of both boxes the Ocean has the same specs as the Pearl and the Sky has the same specs as the Forest. So, if they are the same prices, buy whichever is available and if one is cheaper than the other, then buy that one.

Q: QuestionI have the 4K Samsung 55 Class Curved UN8500 tv and want to know if I buy audio quest hdmi cable, will it improve my pictures and frame rate for my PS5 and is it compatible for my tv?

Asked 5 years ago by Twin.

• A:Answer To be completely honest. I don’t think you need to buy this specific model! You can honestly just get the hdmi 2.1 cable that supports 4K resolution and it’s only 25 bucks if I remember correctly vs spending 2x as much for a console that doesn’t have 8k games anywhere in the near future! And make sure that your tv also has that 2.1 hdmi connection! And that it too has the ability to go at 4K with 120+ FPS capability! Then go into your ps5 settings and make sure you adjust it to your resolution preference

Asked 5 years ago by Scott.
