    This product is very pricey, however like the title says you get what you pay for, this HDMI wire does not fall short anywhere, sound quality is superb, image quality excellent.

    Didn’t really compare it to lesser cables but since my system has just recently been upgraded I want to optimize every bit of performance that I can. Looks to be well made

    Excellent product, but in all honesty, I did not know a whole lot and probably still don't about these products. Yes they have good products, but they don't explain much to you. I had to speak with a few people to help me understand these. This Vodka is top of the line for the 4k setup, but it is not primarily just for 4k definition. The 10% silver is more for the sound than the picture. I was told that for a 4k setup, that chocolate is as good as you want to go. One of the store workers told me he had a 28k dollar sound system and uses the chocolate. So after his advice and one more, I decided I will probably return this item bcuz it is useless for me, it really doesn't improve anything over the chocolate for my Sony A9G 77 inch and Sony sound bar.

    Expensive, but well worth it

    So let's start off by saying how EXPENSIVE this cable is. I've never spent so much on a HDMI cable before. I had major doubts of buying it in the first place, but I took a chance and I'm really glad I did. This cable brought out the true capability of what my 4K TV has to offer. Hooking this up with my Xbox One X, I was completely blown away. Games and movies never looked so awesome, beautiful and CLEAR. Assassin's Creed Odyssey (for example) looks so good that it's jaw-dropping. Im constantly taking screenshots all the time when I find a good angle. Sure the game was designed for 4k viewing and any HDMI cable could do it justice, but this cable improved it 10x over in my opinion. If you want the best of the best of what your 4K TV can bring to the table, I highly recommend this HDMI cable. You will not be disappointed. Still I think it is pricey, but it is worth it, take the chance.

    Bought 3 Vodka cables, 1) 4K player, 1) Blu-ray Macintosh to Receiver and 1) Receiver to 4K 75” Sony TV. 1) Chocolate, Dish box to Receiver. Even though the chocolate was a great improvement over my older audioquest "X" HDMI cables, the vodka was much better in both picture and sound. The end of Justice League 4K was just unbelievable, the lighten bolts from Flash you almost needed sun glasses and the audio was noticeably more detailed. Bottom line, I exchanged the chocolate for another vodka. Cables make a difference, Period!!!! BTW I'm not getting paid for this. I'm over 60 and have worked in a metal shop all my life and I can tell the difference.

    Was able to get one for less than 200. I had a normal hdmi, then tryied the carbon. And I'm surprised to say that at least for me and my family theres a difference. I use it on an a90k. And on some scenes that we revisited with the 3 cables we could saw notible difference specially with the blur the tv produced with motion. And also the definition and the clearer parts being able to be seen more clearly. Regarding music using tidal and connected to a 7.1. in some songs there wasnt really much on other the background noises were clearer. And also the instruments were way more defined in specific zones.

    I used to think buying an HdMI cable over $10-15 was for suckers. If you have an expensive 4k ultra HD TV you need this. trust me

    I do believe that there truly is a noticeable difference in sound quality in upgrading to these cables. My husband asked me if I did something not knowing about this purchase and he rarely notices anything. Black Friday purchase so a splurge but not at full price cost.

    OK. Yeah. This is an expensive cable. Did I pay full price? No. Would I have purchased the cable at full price? Probably not. But it’s a very well made cable. Pro tip: Search Best Buy for AudioQuest HDMI cables and filter the results by those currently on sale. There’s no guarantee that you’ll find what you’re looking for, but there may be a good deal to be had. Check back every so often and perhaps you’ll score a deal on the cable you want. Enjoy!

    The Cable Definitely Would Improve Performance

    I used it between Dish Network DVR and LG OLED 65 TV. The cable improved the picture by giving better color contrast. It also provided better sound stage and voice through the B&W Formation Sound Bar/Bass. However, this is a very expensive HDMI cable, there are a few cables that I found provided similar improvements that are at more reasonable price.

    Excellent Cables but a Bit Pricey

    Audio Quest offers exceptional products and their HDMI Cables are no exception. The higher end cables are a bit pricey but if you plan on purchasing a premium television and av player you'lll want to get the most out of your investment and inferior cables serve as a limiting factor which will result in a reduced audio/visual experience. I am happy with the cable and intend to purchase additional units for my other components.

    Although it was an extremely expensive cable, it was worth the investment. If you watch a lot of high def sports, or 3D / blu-ray movies, you will notice a difference in picture quality. Sound quality is noticably improved as well, when going through an HDMI equipped receiver.

    I used to believe that it's a waste to spend almost $400 for just 10% silver until I bought it to try how good it is. I'm shocked that I can truly see and hear much better. Just skip both cinnamon and chocolate.

    During a $4.5k tv purchase, best ever tv, this cable item was described as the best there is and the Ultra HD TV would be optimally connected". Alhough the HDMI cable works well, it showed no difference in performance than that of a (tried out of curiosity) HDMI cable that was a tenth of the price. Technically, it is possible that this expensive cable can deliver more of the digital signal than a cheaper one, but being digital, the result is either a good viewable display or nothing useable.

    I was using it for my 4K TV and the picture quality was amazing compared to the previous cable. I would recommend to consider this cable when you are buying a 4K tv, you will get better quality of picture with this cable.

    The difference is clear, if you’re spending big money on a 4K HDR Television, you might as well spend the extra money and get the best cables out there to deliver maximum performance.

    This USB C to A cable was used for my Samsung SSD T5 to download high resolution music from DSD and hi resolution music sites. I also use it to store all my high resolution music in DSD and FLAC files to the SSD. The cable has super fast speed and is much better than the stocked cable supplied by Samsung. When I use the SSD wit this cable connecting to Oppo UPD-205 to play music, the sound quality is greatly improved in all aspect. Highly recommended.
