Title: new HDMI cable ~30' suggestions
Post by: bmoney on March 01, 2020, 01:09:00 PM

I know this HAS to have been covered...but I need a new cable to go from my equipment room to the PJ in the theater (JVC RS600 from NAD 758v3) and needs to be between 25 and 30 feet to be safe....

anything reliable to pass the 4k signal that wont break the bank...around $50? or am I asking too much

thanks in advance

In that length, I'd go with the Monoprice Premium Certified cables (https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=15430).  They seem to consistently get the job done, and I don't recall any negatives (other than perhaps the rare cable defect).

I bought a 30' Monoprice HDMI with Redmere technology and it worked when a standard cable wouldn't with my 1080p projector. 

For 4K, I have heard good things about their Cabernet Ultra Series of active cables.

For your budget, definitely check out Monoprice. Just get one certified for 18Gbps data throughput.

No  on the Cabernet Ultra cable. Just buy the much cheaper premium certified HDMI cable.
