Cable Matters is a great company, but buy better cables.

UPDATED, Cable Matters contacted me and sent replacement. Said it must have been damaged in transit. I am now waiting for a replacement. Swapping cables is much better, but there are still artifacts from time to time. They're good enough for now, but I'll buy a thicker HDMI cable when I convert everything to a new theater. I only needed 1 cable but since there were 3 in the package I decided to upgrade my very old Vizio cable to make everything fit. Now I have glitches and flashes all over the TV. I moved the cables and see that the picture keeps getting better and worse. There are no power cords or other cables nearby that could cause interference. It's all on TV. Completely unacceptable. Just in case, I reconnected the Vizio cable and the problem was gone.

Pros
  • HDMI 48Gb/s cable is backward compatible with HDMI 2.0 cable and supports 4:4:4 RGB HDR, 12-bit color and Dolby Vision;
Cons
  • No performance
