Need help with cable runs!
In the market for a 15 m HDMI to go from my pj and 2 shorter ones maybe 1.5 for my setup. Currently have a chord supershield that I got from what hifi a while ago. Dilema.... Might be alone on this but i kinda want all my cables to be the same. So do i keep the chord and get 1.5 and 15v m version if possible or do i sell the cable and go and get all three from somewhere like that cable?
I have a wide variety of HDMI cables. I thought about making them all match and then gave up as it's an expensive route to take and you can spend the money on other more important components.
I bought a 17m HDMI cable for my current set up and found that it was a bit flaky with weaker signals. I tried an HDMI repeater but that just amplified the problems in the signal and gave me a "pink mist" over the picture. I got rid of the cable and went for a HDMI over Cat 6 extender from HDCable.co.uk, which works well and is HDMI 1.4 and 3D compatible for when I upgrade in the future.
So I'd buy two short HDMI cables, an HDMI over Cat 6 extender and some Cat 6 cables for the rest of the distance...
Hi
I would be wary of going for anything too complicated such as HDMI->CAT6->HDMI.
A reasonably priced 1.4HDMI such as from That Cable or UKHDMI http://ukhdmi.com/hdmi-ivuna.php will work fine. I have a 20m run that works perfectly for HD and only cost me about £65.
Thanks for the info guys. Did you get the twenty metre cable from that cable or the other company you mentioned? do you think i shoudl sell the chord and get two 1.5 cables form these companys?
You should check out this thread, there is some more info on this topic on there: http://www.whathifi.com/forum/accessories/15m-hdmi-to-hdmi-required-suggestions-please
oops - duplicate post
I bought my cable from UKHDMI - they have a variety of quality but on mine they guaranteed full HD over 20m.
thanks for that. Hopefully i should pnlyu need 15 m so should need any of that CAT/6 stuff.....I think but will keep it in mind.
Thanks for the info guys.
