CCTV-Depot.com has the 3 Pack 6ft (2m) Gold-plated Male to Male HDMI Cable for $10 with free shipping. A good generic cable for those looking to save money over the "monster" variety, while maintaining the buzz of "Gold Plated Connectors". [BizRate]

    I have read that there is no difference in a $3 hdmi and a monster cable according to some electronics majors that I talked to and read from their posts. It is a lie that they tell you.

    As far as I can tell when we tested this out with my friend's Better Cables variety, there is not difference in picture quality that the naked eye can see. There is a very minute, and I mean really minute, difference in sound quality.

    However, there are some reviewers out there that claim HDMI 1.3 version 2 is supposed to be far superior.

    Overall, for the average consumer, it does not make a difference.

    Ordered a total of 10 of these one time for misc. purposes.(used several to hook up a Samsung 50" 1080p LCD to an Onkio system with PS3 and Digital Cable, all with these HDMI cables). They work very nicely. I see no reason to support the Monster brand lies..

    I saw 6' HDMI cables at Wal-Mart for $80+. I thought that was funny.

    Looks like the same deal from YesBuy a little while ago. These are all from the same chinese source. Works flawlessly for my HDTV.

    I just bought two 6' HDMI gold plated cables through Amazon for about 4 bucks each, then saw a 4' monster cable at BestBuy for $70. I'm just shakin' my head...
