The Debate against HDMI cables

There has been a debate going around about the quality of discount and “premium” HDMI cables. And I’m here to set the record straight. On hand i have two HDMI cables ,

• And 1 $ 69.99 Monster Cable – THX 700 4′ HDMI A/V Cable from  bestbuy

The Budget cable is certified by the same by the same facility as monster cables. Which should make them of same quality.

I have checked out both cables hooked up to my computer and to a HD LCD screen , and my opinion is that i didn’t see a change in quality between the two. They both , Both put  off HD Outputs.  Also, I connected the cables up to my Blu-Ray DVD player and didn’t see a change in the quality neither .

So take it from TheGadget411 :” You don’t Need a $70 buck cable to get HD”
