Ok Not a Monoprice fan...
Anyone on SignalCable HDMI cable or a BlueJeans Cable HDMI cable?

I bought oth a 35 and 50 foot cable from them that is jsut awesome for the price.
Also picked up 6 x 8" HDMI "port saver" HDMI cables.
No problem with them. Amazing how thick those long run cables are for how much they cost.Testing

Disneyjoe7, I currently have a Blue Jeans HDMI cable running from my wall jack to the projector and all other cables from the gear to the switcher and from the switcher to the wall jack are Signal Cable HDMI cables. Both have been flawless since I purchased as well as build quality. Highly recommend either manufacture.Money Talks, Mine says Goodbye Rob!!!!

I bought two AMC 25 Footers from Newegg that work great. $35 each. 24 Awg with gold connectors.

Why, I don't know but just feel I could afford a better cable... But are they I don't know.
But on the other hand any HDMI cable that goes 35' with no problems is impressive.

Give the ones from NEWEGG a try. You won't be disappointed. They pass 1080p without any problems at all.

I love Signal Cable, but I'm afraid to say that I've had a problem with 2 of their HDMI cables already.
I'd recommend checking out DVIGear. Very highly spoken of on AVS, and apparently are some of the best around. Cheap too! -
I like my knukonceptz cables. Thick, awesome connectors, no problems and the right price range.

Just because the newegg cables cost $35 doesn't mean that they are cheaply made. Very nice cables actually. Nice and beefy.

I just bought a Belkin PureAV Silver Series HDMI cable here:

I currently use their speaker cable and am very happy with them. Can't say much for the HDMI cables. -

steve,
I bought a bluejeans for the room I am building, I hooked it up just to test it and it works, the build qulity is what you would expect from bluejeans, not flashy but nice.
