I am not sure how many of you have tried better HDMI cables. Over the weekend I bought 2 Transparent Audio High Performance (1 + 2 meter) HDMI cables. 1 meter is $265 USD.
These were for my bedroom TV and the living room. Both TV's are Sony LED XBR's (forget the model #). I used the HDMI cables to connect the Direct TV box to the TV's. That was the only change.
And...it's a better picture. It's quick to see. Even my wife can see it. I asked it she wanted to go back to see the stock cable...it was a clear "NO - it's better as it is." Seems like the stock cable was including some sort of hash or distortion....The Transparent Audio HDMI cable was like cleaning your windows. Everything sharper, crisper, better. The colors seem more saturated and black ..more black. The other thing is how much more the picture is 3D like...with depth...who knows if it'll get better with breakin...it's damn good right now.
I did not compare these to anything other than stock cables. I am not claiming they are the best...I'm just saying for $265..it's clearly better and for me, definitely worth it. FYI and YMMV
