HDMI Cable

    Just wondering which hdmi cable one would recommend as there seems to be various types / prices for the cables. One site had a monster brand cable for over 100 euro while others websites have other brand cables at 20 euro.

    Is there that much of a difference in quality between brands ?

    Don't waste your money, unless you are going above 30m the 20 euro cable is fine.

    Got a non packaged (just had connected plastic tag) Philips branded one in Tesco for 9.99euro recently. They were selling what appeared to be the exact same cable in a blister pack for double the price. Plugs appeared to be same and writing on the cable was the same.

    Some brands beginning with B or M are not worth it.

    About 10 Euro is right.

    Avoid cheaper than 8 Euro
