    Perfect HDMI for OLED

    I recently purchased a LG OLED CX 77” and a Xbox Series X console. I tried using a Monster Cable hdmi cable I bought 5 years ago which was a 150 dollar cable and considered the best at the time. But the quality wasn’t there I was seeing white specks on black backgrounds so I had to make a move. I tried a couple cables from different brands and still no luck so I decided to research and find out who’s the best! I finally discovered AudioQuest and heard they are the best for high quality applications. I took a stab at the Cinnamon cable which wasn’t cheap but wasn’t extremely expensive. After trying i was immediately satisfied the picture looked perfect and the white speck issue was resolved! I highly recommend this cable for the Xbox Series X or the PS5. I’m not sure it’s making the cable box quality look any better due to the outdated quality cable providers are currently at nowadays. So I decided not to buy a second Cinnamon Cable for the cable box. I hope this helps someone if there debating on purchasing this cable.

    AudioQuest Cinnamon 5' 4-8-10K HDMI Cable

    The AudioQuest Cinnamon 5' 4-8-10K HDMI Cable (48 Gbps) made a significant improvement in the quality of picture from my 4K BluRay player to OLED TV. Prior to this I was using a stock HDMI cable, which did not allow me to appreciate the amazing picture that my equipment had the potential to produce. Won't make that mistake again. Recommend making sure that your cables can fully support the capabilities of your TV and BluRay player.

    Best AV Cables on the Market

    I own several AudioQuest HDMI cables for connecting AV hardware to Televisions using the eARC. They always work flawlessly. Expensive, but worth the timing saving value. The AudioQuest Cinnamon 16.4' 4K-8K-10K 48Gbps HDMI Cable was my most expensive cable (used for my home theater from AVR to wall mounted TV--needed this long cable). At least until now...read on about my next AudioQuest purchase to fix a problem... One of the worst things in an AV set-up is experiencing issues and trying to trouble shoot. I recently had this with a new AV set-up. Two fireplace (double-sided) LG TVs>>50' Rocketfish™ - 50' 4K UltraHD/HDR In-Wall Rated HDMI Cable connected to AV Tower housing Denon DRA-800 Receiver. To the receiver was connected an AppleTV (with a AudioQuest HDMI cable). Worked at first, then started getting "no source" from AppleTV>>Denon Receiver>>Rocketfish 50' 4K HDR HDMI cable running through attic>>Rocketfish 4K Splitter>>Two LG TVs. Seemed like issue might be the receiver. After great effort, multiple trips from Geek Squad, I finally figured out, not the receiver, it's the HDMI cable! I'm now looking to replace the defective HDMI cable with a high quality AudioQuest 41' (12.5m) Long Distance Forest 18. Best Buy doesn't carry these long cables, but should (their brand failed). I do buy the shorter AudioQuest cables from Best Buy and they work great--worth the money as they prevent issues--and save you time! Best Buy, carry (at least online) the long distance AudioQuest cables, please.

    I have been using this type cable since I built my home theater 15 years ago and cannot tell the difference in video and sound quality from that of a friend who used a $10,00,00 cable system for his home theater. These cables are durable and make firm connections without worry of corrosion or breakdown in any way. This is the best one can do for the price!

    This is a sweet spot for HDMI cables, Forest is also great. You can tell how durable this cable is just by feeling it. Way more solid than the Forest, this is my go to HDMI for audio. If you have signals like Dobly Atmos going to your audio system this is an amazing way to transfer that signal. Yes, HDMI cables do not make the signal any better than the source, but why not invest a little bit more and get a great pathway for your signal to travel with the least interference.

    These audio quest are a mist have. They’re are more expensive ones on the marke, but these get the job done. Goid for if your staring pur with a small home theater system or small spaces. Sounds great paired with right speakers and PS5 looks amazing if connected to HDMI 2.1.

    Yes there’s a difference in HDMI cables!!! If you own a Ferrari TV but you use a store brand cable…you’ll get store brand cable picture/sound. This is a perfect entry level cable for anyone wanting to experience high end sound/picture quality. I initially purchased this for my main TV but I’ve upgraded the TV/cables and now this runs my bed room LG 55” OLED w/Bose sound bar…pure excellence!!

    Got this for connecting my Sony AVR to my LG HDTV to get the clearest picture from my other components passing thru. My other HDMI cables are the lesser Audio quest HDMI cables, no more rocketfish for me. Pricey yes, but probably the last HDMI cable you will ever buy

    These cables were picked for me by my premium team, Ed Caufield. If you purchase high end components you must match the cables or you've just wasted a lot of the performance. My new KEF -Marantz system sounds great and we are extremely grateful for Ed's expertise in guiding us through the assembly process, including the connecting cables.

    This HDMI cable is worth every penny spent when it comes to sound quality and video quality. If you have a new TV or pre-amp with 2.1 hdmi connections you need to upgrade cables to 48 gbps. Audio Quest is the Mercedes Benz of cables.

    Pricey But Excellent Cable

    Some say that cables do not make a difference and I would have to disagree. I went from some very highly (online) rated cables to these cable and the differences were readily apparent, both visually and sonically. I have a 55" Sony A9G Bravia TV and sound bar which is a high resolution set up. With the AQ Cinnamon, my wife and I immediately noticed better bass (deeper, tighter and louder), plus vocals were clearer. Colors appeared deeper and richer - more saturated. We tried another 8K cable brand and returned it because we noticed that colors seemed "artificial" and the picture became very bright. I did quick swaps between cables to verify this. It sounded good though. I don't know what if any more appreciable differences come with the even higher priced cables in the AQ line, but I am quite happy with these. I have three of them - for the DVR, the sound bar and a Sony Blu-Ray player. Comes with a lifetime warranty and is 2.1 certified. Cable is somewhat stiff compared to others I have had.

    This cable is amazing and is very durable. My 4k tv looks great with this one. I use it on my 4k player and hobbit trilogy and frozen 2 look really great. I will eventually get one to hook to my charter cable box and I hope it improves the picture quality of it as well.

    There's no doubt that AudioQuest cables are excellent. There's only one decision you need to make is just how much you want to spend for an HDMI cable. I use the Cinnamon cable for connection to 4K devices and Forest Cables for connection to non 4K devices such as 1080 Cable Boxes. However, if you cannot tell the difference save your money and select another brand. One caveat, AudioQuest cables seldom go on sale so if you see one greatly reduced it's probably because it is the older 4K version and not the new 4K-8K-10K 48Gbps. 16Gbps may be fast enough for 3D and HDMI 2.0 but not fast enough for the new 4K HDMI 2.1
