Any recommendations for a quality HDMI cable that won't cost me hundreds.


Going between Sony E50A10 and Direct H10 STB.


Thanks,

Is the length required longer than the cable that comes with the HR10-250? If so, how long? If not, the stock cable works fine. If you have a problem with stock equipment, it's the box, not the cable. Boxes built before Nov. 2004 had a high incidence of HDMI port failure.

As long as there under 10 foot cables you can use most any.

Thanks I see Bettercables is a sponser here. I have bettercables composites on my DVD connection from at least 3 years ago so I think I'll go with them.

Hi fellow Mach owner. Didn't a HDMI cable come with the H10?


Just stripped the old wax and applied Zymol wax to my '04, incredible!

No; only component that I already had anyway.

Well, based on the H10 thread and the HDMI interface "crushing blacks," you might wind up staying with component anyway.

I just received the new PC World magazine in the mail and they have a Article on Cables. They tested a few brands on cables including Monster, And found no discernable differences in PQ, Its a real good test and a good read.

I second monoprice, their cables have worked great for me.

Inquire at the vendor. The H10-250 comes with a full complement of video cables including HDMI-HDMI and HDMI-DVI.

But does the H10, which is what he has, come with those?
