Good and cheap HDMI Cables?

charl1234 · May 10, 2012

Hi Guys,

I'm kinda new to this whole forum thing.
I need a new HDMI cable for my DSTV HD PVR and Xbox, I've been reading the Cnet article on how HDMI cables shouldn't be expensive. Where is the best place to buy them online? I've read good things about http://www.hdcabling.co.za but there is also http://www.cablekiosk.co.za that appears in the Google Ads. Their website looks legit has anyone brought anything from them?

hdcabling was out of stock of the 1.8 HDMI cable. So I went with this one from Cable Kiosk http://www.cablekiosk.co.za/cables/hdmi-cables/high-speed-hdmi-cable-1-8m.html Got to chat to them online straight from their website, responded within seconds, they were really friendly. Will report back on the cable when it arrives.

Just for information Esquire has cables for about R30 including 5M
I bought 2

Esquire seems to have one of the world's most horrible websites.

If you're not going to use it for 3D, a cheap v1.3 cable will work fine. You might want to read up on the difference between standard and high-speed at some point (just to know the difference).
