True high-speed cables. Dolby Vision/4k/HDR

TL::DR is a real high speed cable and good materials. I've been having issues with my Apple TV 4k and Dolby Vision on my LG TV since Word Go came out. I've previously had to use 48Gbps cable and the cheapest solution was fiber which worked great, but if you have to bend or move it at all it degrades the signal, which isn't typical with HDMI cables. all or nothing. This cable is the only "other" cable that worked. Apple-recommended cables never worked for my TV - I kept getting the "cable not fast enough" message until I got fiber optic cable. The fiber optic cables were also 15 feet long, which was too long for my application, but I tried half a dozen other cables just to get them back. Eventually the fiber got kinked or bent and I actually noticed a degradation in the sound in my system - some might say it's impossible, so maybe I'm crazy. Who knows? However, this cable works with my Apple TV 4k and Dolby Vision - and my current setup includes other Cable Matters cables from my Apple TV for surround sound to my Philips Hue games console and then this cable to my TV. I am currently using my surround sound for source selection and this cable is the main/only output from my Hue box to my TV. Works fantastic and if I needed them I would get more but at the moment I have 4 Cable Matters in my setup and everything works as it should.
