Hi All,
Just wondering if anyone knows a good HDMI cable. Dont need something over-priced like 100GBP etc.
Does B&O have a preferred brand/make?
Thanks
There was a test of HDMI cables on the gadget show a while back.
They reckoned the you couldn't tell the difference in picture quality between cheap and very expensive leads!
Hi Fil,
I think I saw that one actually! Ok, cheap and dodgy it is then :)
Inexpensive yet well put together will do nicely -- no need at all to spend a lot of money on HDMI cables (though there are various being offered at quite amazing prices.)
Cables is an area where I'm actually quite impressed with B&O. Given the prevailing fashion in audiophile circles, B&O could have made a mint by creating superexpensive cables. But their audio engineers know what's required, and see no need to exaggerate dimensions and capabilities.
Thanks for the hints guys, the apple hdmi cable sounds like a good idea! ill hold off buying it until ive decided whether or not i should get an apple tv, ps3 or beomedia1!

very true. I actually have a spare mac mini, but my dad wants it.
Why would one be better than apple tv for example, my imac is in the sam room? i guess i could browse the net from my tv with the mac mini...
