HDMI Cable for DVR and DVD
I have a motorola DVR and HD-A3 Toshibia hooked up to my 50 inch plasma. I have about a 6 foot run I need to do with no in wall installation. I went to monoprice and there are so many types of HDMI cables I have no idea what to get. They talk about 1.3a Cat. 2 CL2 certifiied. Can someone give me an education as to what that means, what do you think would work for my situation and will the hdmi cable really improve the PQ? I am not impressed with watching the HD DVDs on the HD-A3 however I have my plasma still set in break in mode settings so that might have something to do with the poor PQ or my DVD is not set correct. I have no clue at this point.

CL2 is an external sheathing to protect the cable when installed in a wall. You don't need it but it doesn't do any harm except the cable is stiffer.
HDMI 1.3 is a future spec and there is no equipment supporting it at the moment. You don't need it but it doesn't do any harm.

Yeah, 'bout a million per cent.
To begin with, you have never actually seen "HDTV" using that type of connection!
