Hi,
Question for the WHS&V team, do top branded HDMI cables really make a difference?
Over on the High Definition Forums:

Most users say that they don't make any visible / audible difference and this guy who is an AV electrical engineer says theres no way a cable can make any difference to a digital signal because unlike analog signals the signal is either on or off, so not subject to waveform interference / noise.
They all recommend monoprice cables instead which seem high specc'd but cost only a fraction of cables such as QED:

Simple question therefore. Is the Electrical Engineer / all these cinema buffs right in that the brand of cable makes no difference to the picture / sound on a digital HDMI signal provided the cable has sufficient bandwidth?
Al.
