Anyone tried the new Chord Active??

Ive read a few reviews of the new Chord Active which sound really promising but thought Id post here for some first hand accounts, please share...

I bought the Chord Active HDMI a few days ago after reading Andrew Everard's positive blog, and another glowing review from a commentator who is normally sceptical about such things.

As I was already using a Chord Silver HDMI, I was somewhat doubtful I would notice any difference, but to my pleasant surprise there is in fact a quite discernible improvement to both picture and sound.

In my opinion, this was £85 (for the 0.75m lead) well spent.

thanks for replying. ive used a few different 1.3c spec hdmi cables and have noticed a difference with each so obviously hdmi cables do effect PQ and sound. i know alot people say how can binary code cable do this and i can't answer but i say different hdmi cables of the same spec give different results so its a def confusion, greez even the hifi nuts here argue like mad about this :O).

saying that I cant wait to try out this new cable.. may even force me to get a Blu-ray player!!

hopefully it will give surprising results like the SHB2 interconnect did..

Assuming the Chord Active HDMI and the QED Singature HDMI are of the same price and length of 1M or 1.5M are ok, which is the better cable? TIA.
