mains , hdmi , whatever , i dont believe in the remarkable differences people claim with either , small differences ?, maybe , but some of the words used to describe the differences one hdmi cable makes on , lets say a tvs picture , over another , i just dont buy ...

You get what you pay for. Mass produced rubbish or hand assembled cables. Yes the parts dont cost that much but the R&D and the hand making are not free.

why say mass produced rubbish ?? have you tried them all ?? hand made hdmi cables ?? please , name one ??

You asked for one

http://www.hdcable.co.uk/hdmi-cable-infinius.html

where does it say its hand made ?? and if it is , how could that be profitible ?? or more to the point , reliable ?? human error would creep in , robots dont make mistakes, also , my freebie cables meet the same (as of yet no need for ) standards ...

i have a question , if whfi find that the tesco hdmi cables they are going to review , are excellent , will you still want to buy expensive ones ?? and if so , why ??
 
Blimey, you ARE making this hard work click on the frequently asked questions "why is this cable so expensive?". You asked for one example I gave you one.

I believe in what I see and hear(please see blind test carried out in this months "big question") where I apparently have expensive tastes.

Believe me, if a cable came along at £10 that sounded or looked better than any of my cables I would buy it tomorrow, but sadly to date it has not happened

Ha ha, I don't give a monkeys what they look like...

Might be worth looking at the WireWorld flat HDMI cables, though I am still traumatised by the UK distributor coming up to me at a show and saying 'I want to show you something' then appearing to undo his belt - which was of course the flat cable...

It may work with some reviewers, I guess...

I will look into it, thank you Andrew.

Interesting sales technique

JoelSim:England 9 Foreigners 0 this week, nice.

Blimey, jingoism in these hallowed halls? I just don't think it's quite that simple these days, JS, in the global, debt-laden and uber-commercialised world of football. For instance, owned by 'foreigners', indebted to god knows whom, bankrolled by an Australian, managed by foreigners, and with best players (excl Rooney) all foreigners. The only English thing about it is the fans, and they're all employed by foreigners. Quintessentially English? Although for the record, I'm not exactly miserable to see Real exit and would be absolutely delighted to see Arsenal or Man U win it (but only if Barca can't). Anyway, cables...
 
Maxflinn, I await your counter arguements to Faradays and Lenz laws, I will be watching New Scientist with baited breath.................

Very true, there's much about football that I don't like these days.

there you go sorted , ps , i got that from tescos website...
 
Please.......you started a debate, on which you changed your main focus mid way through. I have presented my initial assessment and theories to back it up, now I await your educated and informed response..........
 
So when the going gets tough and someone actually stands up and starts to defend his beliefs based upon observation and theory (also called science) you resort to childish comedy images.

Its a shame really..........

How did Lenz and farday have a vested interest in cables?

I do not see any reason for the "thread locked" status I am merely asking you to back up your initial claims / inflammatory thread title with scientific evidence / theory, as I have demonstrated in my counter argument

I now bow out due to yet another ignorance of scientific argument / counter with the tendency towards childish humour and teenage wit
