| | Customer Reviews: Cables failing in two completely different a/v setups (10 March 2010)I've ordered a total of 7 of the 6' mediabridge ultra hdmi cables and used them in two different a/v setups (though 3 are spares). While the cables worked fine for the first couple of months (or less), in "both" a/v setups I began to experience the same problem: the screen would go black for ~5-10 seconds every now and then. Some times, it would happen three times in 1 minute. It always seems to happen when at a crucial point in a sports game or the climax of a movie - as you can imagine it's very annoying. The issue has nothing to do with the cable service (as my DVR box records the channel perfectly fine and I can rewind and watch the 10 seconds I missed). Also, the two a/v setups have 2 different cable providers located in two different regions in the US. The cables were purchased on three separate dates (two orders in June and one in September) so the problem cannot be attributed to a bad production run. While the cables ordered in June have a slightly different design (no red stripe), they appear to be the same cable with the same product # and markings on the cable. One a/v installation is very basic - Digital DVR cable box -> LG LED LCD TV (thus using one hdmi cable). The other setup is more complex (three hdmi cables): Digital Cable Box, Onkyo TX-SR507 A/V Receiver, LG Blu-ray player, Toshiba LCD TV. All a/v components used in both systems are less than 1 year old. I have replaced all 4 cables with Blue Jeans Cable - BJC Series-F2 cables (not from amazon) which were highly recommended in a popular a/v forum. The BJC cables were only slightly more expensive but you can also order the exact length you need from 1ft to 25ft. For comparison, the BJC 4 foot cable is [...] and probably higher quality than the 4 foot Monster HDMI cable selling on amazon for [...]. If you don't want to get scammed by monster and still want a quality cable the BJC cable may be a much better choice than these rebranded chinese cables sold on amazon. Great product! (08 March 2010)Easy to connect to TV, the picture is awesome, and the product was much more reasonably priced than others the TV sellers try to get you to buy. Great Value (08 March 2010)At $9.99 they are every bit as good as the $39.99 ones I had purchased. Awesome (08 March 2010)This product was cheap and affordable, and it did the job! I'm playing my ps3 with this great cable, and I'm using it to hook up my laptop. Picture Perfect! Mediabridge Ultra Series HDMI Cable (07 March 2010)I read a bunch of reviews that told me the expensive cables were no different from the cheap cables and I didn't have the money to experiment, so I bought the mediabridge ultra series for my xbox and the picture is great, although I would like to see what the expensive cables could do, but I can't see it making that big of a difference. |
