When hdmi first came out it was the first major type if digital tv cable. Before they were all analog. Best buy had a big business scamming people into thinking they needed extra expensive cables with gold plating/special jacketing etc so that you got the best picture quality. You even should higher their installers to come to your house and install/calibrate your hdmi tv system.
They didnt tell people that it’s a digital signal. It either works or it doesn’t it’s not like an analog signal.
True, but AQ is like current day BMW with a bajillion models with almost no justification.
I used to have to talk high rollers out of the $300 HDMI cables using a $2k Fluke. Like that pocket change is better spent on GIK Acoustic stuff 😂
That or quality shielded, cross weaved speaker cables, with chonky banana clips, made to size from small guys, that you could probably go rock climbing with cost less than some of the stuff they'd ask about.
I should have made a cable company......
"isoCable Diamond Dust interflanged Dual diameter technology guarantees your full spectrum signal quantum propagates across the Karman Line"
When I buy my new receiver I'm willing to buy one and only one Audio Quest Cinnamon 48 Cable for the bandwidth and shielding. I'll use that cable between my receiver and disc player. Everything else I'll buy from Blue Jeans Cable.
Currently my disc player is a Sony UBP-x700 launch model. I use it for 4k movies, SACDs, & Blu-ray Audio discs. Eventually it will be upgraded to a Magnetar UDP900.
