I know these are expensive. However, let me tell you that it solved so many of the issues I was having with sound and display. I needed reliable cables from my AVR to the TV and the PS5 to the AVR. I went through SEVERAL options bought on Amazon and finally got fed up and bought these. Problems gone and the sound and picture are actually better. The PS5 always comes up at 120hz 4K now, before it was hit or miss.

Excellent cable to deliver exceptional performance of a HDTV and AVR. When you bond high quality equipment you want the link between them to be a strong one.

Using this on my Samsung Q60 43” with Apple 4K and the image is amazing. I was using a regular HDMI cable and I was having a lot of jittery scenes on everything. This fixed all my issues. No more jittery scenes and the color is amazing. Whoever said expensive cables don’t make a difference is a liar. These are worth every penny. I have no regrets.

THE SIGNAL FROM MY RECEIVER TO MY TV KEPT INTERRUPTING. REMOVING AND REINSERTING THE HDMI CABLE WOULD RESTORE THE SIGNAL FOR A SHORT TIME. FINALLY IT WAS NO LONGER POSSIBLE TO GET THE TV TO FUNCTION. THE REPLACEMENT OF THE HDMI CABLE RESTORED SERVICE. THE AMAZING THING WAS THE IMPROVEMENT IN THE QUALITY OF THE PICTURE. THA PREMIUM PRICE FOR A PREMIUM CABLE WAS A GREAT INVESTMENT!

Great HDMI Cable! needed a 7.5 for my Xr77A80k... with a Sanus Pro mount... cause the TV can come off the wall 28" you need the longer cable! AudioQuest is the BEST! Great Quality! Works Perfect and through the Hta 7000 Soundbar Sounds Amazing!

I purchased from Best Buy AudioQuest Cinnamon 48Gbps HDMI cables when I bought my new 4K TV, receiver and blu-ray player. My cable box was frequently dropping the signal so I replaced my old HDMI cable with the AudioQuest Forest 48Gbps. The picture on the box and on Best Buy's site shows the cable to have green stripes and appears to be braided. However when my cable arrived it was black and not braided. I contacted AudioQuest and spoke to a person from their tech support. According to him, no AudioQuest cable below Cinnamon quality has ever been braided. Furthermore the photo on the box is generated for advertising and is NOT a picture of the product. He assured me that my cable was an authentic AudioQuest HDMI cable. And Best Buy was the first authorized dealer to sell the new 48Gbps cables. I am giving this cable 4 stars because in this particular instance it had little or no affect in my cable box's performance.

Welcome to the top of the HDMI tower. Ultra High Speed HDMI is for people who want the ultimate in future-proofing. These Audio Quest ultra-certified cables are guaranteed to provide the full 48Gbps that enables all of the advanced features in the HDMI 2.1 specification, including 8K/60Hz and 4K/120Hz video, eARC, all versions of HDR, and the many varieties of variable refresh rate (VRR) technologies.
At the moment, only two categories of users can really benefit from it: Next-gen gamers on consoles like the PS5 or Xbox Series X, both of which support gaming in 4K/120Hz and 8K/60Hz, and those who own 8K TVs. Keep in mind, to be able to game at 4K/120Hz or 8K/60Hz, your TV needs to support these resolutions and frame rates, too.

These HDMI cables are awesome. We had the cinnamon ones but we had to return them because they were too long for where we decided to mount the tv. So we ordered these instead and you can tell the quality difference with these vs just the basic HDMI cables!

I watch a lot of movies via 4kblur ray disc. After watching netflix decided to load John Wick 3 via this cable and my Panasonic DP-UB820 4k blu ray player...the picture is STUNNING! Netflix and Prime video does not even compare. Great cable. A little pricey but worth it!

Definitely worth getting if you use a PS5 or XSX. This 2.1 cable is much better than the standard 2.1 that comes in the box, especially when it comes to the audio.
