Ive yet to notice any difference when only using a sky hd box.( the inclosed Hd cable that comes in sky hd shipment box. :confused:.
Skys broadcasts are mainly 720p.

Perhaps when using Blueray, this monster lead would be a good purchase indeed.

I think this one is mine :innocent:

Can you expand on why there's a difference between a £10 hdmi lead, to a £200's worth please.
What difference could you see to the Picture?? more crisp, better movement in fast moving pictures??

I have the Samsung LED 46" myself. I also do alot of work with Tv's etc, and would be interested if you could expand abit ta :happy2:

and could you link the 7 day shop aswell??  :smiley:

Hi Steve

This is the Cable i bought is this one Monster M2000HD

According to 7 Day shop the RRP is £37.99 however they had a lower spec Monster Cable in Curry's for £98 iirc and the actual cable is $300 direct from Monster.

Anyway as to the difference in Picture - Even on Sky HD (I was watching the Pacific in HD) sometimes on the Sky HD cable it would seem to go a bit pixelated or ghosting in the background during fast movement and this was enhanced somewhat by the Motionflow. I Spoke to Sony and they said try a better HDMI lead so i did. The difference was instantly noticeable. The Picture was clearer and during fast movement none of the pixelation or Ghosting appeared. I got 3 of those cables so that everything was singing of the same song sheet. So now the Signal going into the Surround and then going to the TV is going down identical cables. Also you will notice a difference (well i did anyway) in sound quality.

Once i went on to BluRay the difference was a lot more profound. Band of Brothers and the Beach Scene in Saving Private Ryan all had a few problems until i got the new cables. Now the images are crisp clear and the fast scenes are exactly the same.

Im not saying you have to get that Cable but after a bit of research the common theme amongst every tech person i spoke to or review i read was as long as you get an Oxygen Free Cable with Gold Connectors then you won't notice any difference between say a £20 and a £200 but there was a vast difference between the supplied Sky HDMI and the Monster Cable
