“The sound bar came with a very short HDMI cable (about 4 feet). I need a longer cable (about 12 feet), due to wall mounting. Do I have to get an HDMI cable specifically for the arc connection? And if so can you recommend a brand? I have a nanocell lg TV.”

It depends on your TV HDMI version connections. Below is an article that's very informative with a chart showing the required HDMI version per technical activity/feature trying to accomplish. In my opinion I would future proof and use version HDMI 2.1. What brand cable? Absolutely no need to purchase the hyped up expensive brands. HDMI audio and video signals are digital therefore don't require superior materials to transfer data. Search the amazon jungle as the guidelines state not to tell customers to shop elsewhere. https://www.digitaltrends.com/home-theater/hdmi-explained-everything-you-need-to-know-news-specs/

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Using HDMI ARC does not require a new HDMI cable. Any HDMI cable should be able to cope with the requirements - it's only when we move on to eARC this could (potentially) become an issue. Google
