Hi,

we have IPTV set top box and we use some ordinary HDMI cable for connection to our Panasonic plasma. I can say that I like the difference between standard and HD picture, so I thought I can experiment with a better quality HDMI cable just to see if it worth.

I'd like to hear your expereince on this if any and if you can reccomend something, thanks.

The Gadget Show recently did a test on HDMI cables, from about £20 upto £80 (maybe even more). Their conclusion? Buy one for £20.... there was no difference at all on their BIG screens with HD signal.

I have used a few over the last three years.
I now use one that costs around £80 for HD.
Only because i got it for £50.
I had a good chat on the phone one day with Adam, when i got my n/VI in 2006 about HDMI leads,and he told me the make of lead Naim use to test with.
I used one just to see what it would be like as Naim do with the addaptor for the n/vi.
The lead cost me around £15 and it was very good.
I then went for a lead without the addaptor, it was better but not that much.
If you can get your dealer to loan you a few over a few days so you can make your mind up.
I think that would be the way to go.
