The cable is fine, I had a cheap cable for 2.00 at the discount. When I one day the TV pushed a piece forward the plug is pulled. This can occur when Philips SWV 2432 T HDMI cable not happen, the its connector are molded from a whole piece. In addition, the cable is much thicker than that of the discounters, which shows that it is very well shielded. Until I received the Philips SWV 2432 T HDMI cable I used a makeshift NoName 5m HDMI cable when I then moved to the Philips cable I was amazed, I saw a difference in the image quality directly. Is greatest at the web pages with a lot of writing (have my LCD TV is connected to the PC). Especially with longer distances to quality HDMI cable pay off, because they are usually much better shielded. But only because of better durability (molded plug) pays the Philips cable. Conclusion: For the price a strong buy recommendation! I can not imagine that it must be held at a more expensive HDMI cables with the same length, a difference from the Philips SWV 2432 T HDMI cable me.
