    Great video bud! I just read about this when i was looking to replace my hdmi for my 4k hdr. And its been a few years.
    I found a 4k hdr HDMI at 22.28 Gbps and it only cost $15. It looked great before and the bandwidth throughput increase made a massive change.
    It was difficult to shake that a $15 cable can be better than the then $50 HDMI I replaced.
    Technology changes so much, peeps like you make it easy for any level of knowledge to gain great insight.

    I love your reviews/videos. You are articulate, to the point, and you know what you are talking about. Many thanks.
    My procedure for reading reviews is to always read the worst ones first, and to then total the percentage of the number of 1 - 3 star reviews versus the total percentage of the 1 and 2 star reviews. That usually tells me a lot.

    Good video Chris. I like when you said there are people out there who swear by the expensive ones. A lot of people don't realize that a lot of products that look the same are, from the off brand ones from China to the expensive ones with big name brands can be made from the same company in China. The companies that own the name brand ones just have their name and logo printed on it. It's good to know that the PT Barnum phrase, "there's a sucker born every minute," is still popular and living well in Asian countries.

      Not saying your wrong but this video isn't entirely correct. If you're someone just trying to watch something then yes, you likely won't even notice differences. But if you're connecting a serious audio/visual system and are an audiophile, there is a massive difference in cables. Night and day difference.

    • @OtomoTenzi
      @OtomoTenzi 3 года назад +3

      That ain't SHIT... 'overkill' is when you buy expensive-ass cables that cost even more than all of your AV equipment combined. There are lotsa fools who actually do that, cuz they think its cool for their inflated egos or just have way too much money to blow. That's just being really fucking stupid if ya asked me, cuz cable specs and equipment will keep on rapidly changing and evolving like every year or two.
      Just get whatever that's cheap and works decently on your setup for now. Save up that money incase you might need to add things or upgrade anything later. Yeah, thicker cable shielding is a pretty safe bet on long runs of at least 15ft or more cuz it helps to block out any interference that might prevent the signal from reaching your TV properly (such as picture drop-outs). Fuck EVERYTHING you ever heard about ones and zeros, cable bandwidth, brand integrity, and all that jazz. As long as they carry a nice clean signal without any issues and aren't too overpriced, then ya prolly did OK!

    Thank you for your always informative and helpful reviews. I just ordered the optical cable you recommended - my Epson 4010 4K projector is 36' from my Denon 6700 receiver because I have to run it up the wall and across the ceiling. They were running a promotion and I got 11% off on Amazon. So a 50' optical HDMI cable was actually $20 cheaper than a shorter one. Thanks!

    Hey Chris!! I really have trouble choosing a way to run the video signal 50ft to my projector.
    I like to run the cable through the walls. So I figured, HDMI over ethernet are the best way since the ethernet cable can be cut and joint!
    Are HDMI over ethernet good? You haven't covered this topic yet. I am thinking about buying J-Tech digital 4k HDMI extender (JTECH-EX230 in amazon).
    Really love to hear your opinion about this!!

    I'd like to add to this, that some HDMI 2.0 cables can pass HDMI 2.1 tests, length and wire gauge are primary factors in this, as technically, the pinouts are the same, it's only bandwidth across the connection points that has changed for the newer standards. Some heavier gauge shorter HDMI 2.0 cables will carry greater than 30 Gbs(I actually have a 6 foot one from Atevon that tests at the full 48 Gbs and works on my PC running 4k 120 at 4:4:4)of data, however longer lengths of the same cable may only pass 18 Gbs, typically, if you buy a good ~28-30 AWG 2.0 cable that is only 6 feet or less, it will likely work for the PS5 which is limited to 32 Gbs on it's HDMI 2.1 port as is, though the only way I have to test is using my Denon receiver, just plug from the cable into both input and output on the receiver and run the cable test, if it gets close to 35 Gbs, it's fine for the ps5, if it gets 40 Gbs or greater it will work fine for the XsX and PC...well, it needs to hit 48 Gbs on the PC if you use eArc from your tv/monitor to a receiver for sound, but 40 is plenty for 4k 120 at 4:4:4, and 32 is enough for the PS5 since it's limited to 4k 120 at 4:2:2.
    Basically, if you have a newer Denon or Marantz receiver with HDMI 2.1 you should be able to run a cable test on your cables and determine if they are good enough for your needs.

    Chris Majestic Hello. I am looking for a HDMI cable for a 25ft length to go from an iMac to an external computer monitor. The problem with a lot of HDMI cables is that they are really stiff and thick. I need to run the cable up the leg of a desk and then up to the monitor stand as well as each arm of the monitor stand and finally plugged into the monitor. The thicker the cable the more the cable will make the monitor stuff when I go to move or swing it on it’s pivoting arm. I have seen thin flat cables. Do you know of a really good cable for this situation? Thanks
