Care to elaborate on what the conditions of the test were - e.g. what gear were they using to conduct the test?

I have, and use QED performance cables on my system.

Which magazine state that ' Our expert viewers saw no difference at all in the picture quality when using the £10.00 Tesco value lead, the £20.00 John Lewis lead or the £100.00 Belkin lead,with our technical tests confirming identical performances. We passed data through all our HDMI leads at 6.2Gb per second - a data rate more demanding than Blu-ray - without a single error'

Rayh, how come the Forum quotes you as having 10 posts for all your entries on this thread ? Or is that a Tesco "Buy 1, get 3 free" offer ?

all these posts ridiculing tescos hdmi cables , i trust you guys have tried them for yourselves ?? or is it just that you feel something good must be expensive ??

 

[True Blue]

Nah, same logic used as those who say mains cables cant make a difference that have never tried them.

 

[Anonymous]

no no no something good is expensive thats why there so good really its like me comparing my kef3005se package to a cheap and nasty sub 100 pounds brand yes you will get sound through the speaker but its the end result which what matters simple... quality doesnt come cheap.

why could a tesco cable not be as good as any other cable ?? all cables are made on production lines , by machines , using the same basic materials ...
