No any HDMI Cable will do 1080p, But you need a HDMI Cable ver 1.3a to do lossless sound trough bitstreaming.

I have a ver1.1 and it does 1080p24 just fine.

No, you do not.

What do you mean!!!

What do you mean!!!You may need v1.3 interfaces for these CODECs but any competent HDMI cable will do. I have been using the same Monoprice HDMI cables for all player to processor connections for some years now. They work perfectly well with high rate bitstreams and AFAIK there are no vX.X specs on them.

Quoted from http://www.bluejeanscable.com/articles/hdmi-spec-versions.htm?hdmiinfo

"With all these spec versions around, and equipment and cables having been designed and tested in accordance with one version or another of the spec, it's natural that people worry about the compatibility of equipment and cables. Device compatibility is a complicated subject and is really outside our area of expertise, but when it comes to cables, we can give some reassurance. The basic characteristics of HDMI cables have not changed from one spec version to another. They have the same conductors, in the same configuration, wired to the connector in the same manner.

What this means is that, in terms of supporting features and protocols (e.g., HDCP), all HDMI cables have been designed to the same basic standard, whether they were designed under 1.1 or 1.3a or anything in between, and whether they were tested under CTS 1.1, 1.3c, or anything in between. A 1.1 certified cable may not be officially (or actually) 1.3 "compliant" in the sense of having passed testing under the 1.3 standards, but it will always be 1.3 compatible, in the sense that it is built to handle the same job, and has all the necessary parts, for 1.3."
