    Hi guys

    I'm just after buying an Onkyo TX-SR308. Do I need to get a HDMI 1.4 cable or will 1.3 cable work? I notice from reading on wikipedia that they appear to be different sizes. "The Type D connector is 2.8 mm × 6.4 mm, whereas the Type C connector is 2.42 mm × 10.42 mm"

    A 1.3 cable will work, backward compatability is usually always supported in these situations.

    Even though they are physically different sizes?

    All the new TV's I have seen use the same sized HDMI socket and are 1.4.

    Where did you see a "Larger" 1.4 hdmi cable?? The article sites "C" and "D" but they are "Mini" hdmi and are usually on HI-DEF camcorders, phones etc
