I was on the verge of me after many recommendations especially for such a length of 7.5 m cable of the "medium" price range around the 150, - Euro to be ordered, as I had yet read the many positive reviews here and thought to myself, " the risk gehste a time! ". Frankly, I counted nearly so, the cable wg. Failure to have to return again, I was warned but from different sides before to avoid at a length 1-2m on too billge cable. Today cable arrived, connected and in short: it works! Well - what can I write more ... image is 1: 1, sound is 1: 1, as in my 1m cable for 25, - Euro. No failures, no problems. Player: Samsung 2500 TV: Sony Bravia 40 inch Full HD, different BluRays tested (Kill Bill and Speed Racer) and compared with the 1m cable at close range. Any failure or negative to report. My tip: Be sure to try before you decide to go on high-priced cable! Addendum 29.4.2009: Everything Palletti! Cable in continuous use and no problems ... who would have thought at such a price? Not me ;-)
