Bought this cable specifically to run between an HDTV (a 46″ Samsung) and an upconverting DVD player (a Toshiba DVD recorder). After installation, the signal sent from the DVD player (a regular DVD upconverted to 1080P) was displaying static noise all over the place. Rechecked connections to make sure everything was plugged in correctly, but nothing helped. On a hunch, I set the DVD player to send a 1080i signal to the HDTV: no more static. Researching online, I found other people had the same problem with other cables from other companies: their problems were solved when they replaced their cheaper HDMI cables with more expensive ones. Since my HDTV also upconverts to 1080P, I ended up letting the DVD player upconvert only to 1080i, but this is not what I was expecting to do when purchasing this cable, and there is no reason why this cable should not be able to carry a 1080P signal.
I was a little worried about this cable; after all, the HDMI spec says 32 feet maximum, and 30 feet is 93.75% of that. But I had to try, my projector is a long way from my receiver.
The cable worked fine – so I was quite pleased.
The quality of the product itself is very high, good connectors, heavy, yet flexible cable between the connectors, gold in all the appropriate places.
I’d buy again.
Also, shipping was perfectly reasonable – it took about four business days from ordering to receipt using Amazon’s expedited shipping option. That’s not bad for a third-party vendor.
The 30ft HDMI cable is perfectly fine. The shipping took an excruciatingly long time.
