one potential problem
(4 out of 5) by Prof. Crayzee on Mar 21, 2008 (Ithaca, NY)This is a great cable at a great price.
There is one problem that may potentially affect you though. The height of the HDMI connector is quite high (ie it is thick). Whereas many of these connectors are around 1/4 inch tall, this one is 7/8 inch. There is some a/v equipment out there that doesn't have enough room for this connector. My SONY LCD projector falls into this category.
What I ended up doing was to get a small (1 foot) m-f HDMI cable extender, and this ended up with a male plug small enough to fit into the projector connector.
This probably won't affect you, but measure your input connector area just in case.

Buy This Cable!!!, Don't waist money on others!!!
(5 out of 5) by John H. Tennant on Mar 1, 2008 (London, Ontario)Deliverd to Canada this cable cost me less than $30.00. It works perfect.
Best buy Sells the comparable monster hdmi1000hd 10m hdmi cable for $399.99.
Unlike Analog signals, with an HDMI Digital, the signal either makes it to your equiptment, or it doesn't. there is not "weak" or "better" picture, plain and simple, it either works, or it does not, all or nothing, 1's and 0's, you get the point.
It Blows me away that companies like best buy can charge that much for a cable.

Great quality,.. better price.
(5 out of 5) by F. GUTIERREZ on May 8, 2007Let's face it in this digital age as long as your AV equipment is able to get all the necessary 0s and 1s you're set. There is no need to go out and waste money on Monster Cable wires, this does just fine. I use this 25ft long cable to connect my roof-mounted HD projector to my AV equipment. Needless to say, it works super well.

25 feet of High Definition Value!
(5 out of 5) by B. Almonrode on Jan 1, 2008 (Bettendorf, IA)Good cable for the money. Mine had the ferrite ends - becareful if you have tight clearances - they are molded into the cable and cannot be removed.

Great cable, except for one thing....
(1 out of 5) by John A. Cowan on Jul 15, 2008 (Beaumont, Texas United States)It didn't work. I plugged the cable in, and... nothing. I tried different HDMI input, and still nothing. I finally found that I could sometimes make it work if I fiddled with it a bit while the DVD player was running, but if I turned the DVD player off and restarted it, the cable would go back to not working.
I tried a different cable to make sure this cable was the problem rather than the inputs on the TV and DVD players, and everything worked fine. This cable was definitely the problem.
