10m hdmi cable needed

Sparky · 28 Dec 2011 at 16:44

Had a bit of a change around and now need a 10m hdmi cable. Will be running from a Onkyo 608 AV amp to a Projector. Will 1.3 be good enough?

Also where is the best place to get them from?

Ebay? I picked up a 10m for not much on there, was around a tenner or so

Did see some on there, wasnt sure about the 1.3 stuff though. Will that be ok as im only sending video not audio?

I've used these guys before a bit more expensive than a tenner.

Another alternative supplier and quite a lot cheaper. I've used them loads of times and find them first class.

I bought a 10M HDMI 1.4 Cable from the forest place, well one of the people who camp there for around £13, seems fine to my old eyes.

I bought my 15m HDMI cable from OcUK.

First one didn't work, replacement works fine and still does!

Any cheapy cables like that I get from the auction site. There are loads of sellers and they are all dirt cheap.

cablestogo is quote good too, all the ones you see these days meet the 1.3 spec and a lot more 1.4 version coming out for 3D ready spec.

Cables aren't rated by specification level (1.3, 1.4 etc).

This is from hdmi.org

Will any of the new HDMI 1.4 features require a new cable?

The HDMI Ethernet Channel feature will require a new cable that supports this functionality, either a Standard HDMI Cable with Ethernet or a High Speed HDMI Cable with Ethernet, depending on the maximum resolution to be supported. The Automotive Connection System will also employ a new class of cable, the Standard Automotive HDMI cable, which is designed specifically for automotive use. All of the other new HDMI 1.4 features will be compatible with the existing categories of cables.
