When my house was being built 5 years ago (spring 2006) I gave the contractor a 25 ft. monoprice HDMI cable. This was back before the HDMI 1.3 hardware came out and the "high speed" label was not yet used for HDMI cables. I did buy monoprice's heaviest gauge HDMI cable (22 gauge). I purchased the HDMI wall plates in 2008 when I actually finished the room for my dedicated HT. I have had no HDMI related issues using Blu-ray 3D over these connections. I'm feeding my video sources to a Denon AVR-3300cic AVR then on to my JVC RS40 projector via the long HDMI run and HDMI wall plates.
When I ordered the cable from Monoprice, it was labeled: HDMI 1.3a Category 2 Certified CL2 Rated (In-Wall Installation) Cable (24AWG) w/ Net Jacket - 15ft (Gold Plated Connectors)
However, if I click on the item number it now has this description: Premium 24AWG HDMI High Speed Certified Male to Male Cables
It was ordered on 6/24/08.
The wall plates are item#2730, if you go to that, they do have a newer version available.
The test I did was with a shorter in-wall HDMI cable that was for plasma use (which I'm not using since I bought an entertainment center and didn't hang the plasma on the wall). However the cable is the same gauge, etc as the 15ft that I'll be using with the projector. The AVR-projector run will only use one wall plate though, as my equipment closet is unfinished so I didn't bother with wall plates, etc.
When the 3D image started up, all I got was snow/static on my screen.
