QED's Performance HDMI pushes Van den Hul's HDMI Flat HDMI cable extremely close.

Yes, the Flat takes picture and sound quality to another level, but the QED is a very capable performer. It produces a finely balanced, solid, stable sound.

The cable takes nothing away from image quality and serves up a vibrant, wonderfully rendered picture.
