Review on Get Exceptional Quality with Monoprice Ultra High Speed HDMI Cable - 50 Feet - Black, 8K@120Hz, Dynamic HDR, 48Gbps, Fiber Optic, Earc, AOC, Ycbcr 4:4:4 - Slimrun AV Series by Beth Williams

Revainrating 5 out of 5

High price but great results

This allowed me to instantly achieve HDR at 4K at 60Hz in 30 minutes from a Marantz 8805AV processor to an Epson 6050UB projector (I also had to change the Epson EDID signal setting from switch on normally to advanced). With my previously purchased Fusion 4K cable, I was only able to get 4K@60Hz without HDR or 4K@30Hz with HDR. I tried other, cheaper means in the hours leading up to purchasing this cable, including swapping out shorter, cheaper HDMI cables from multiple sources (Xbox One X, Roku Ultra 4K, etc.) to the processor, to no avail. While I'm not thrilled with the high price of this cable, I'm very happy with the result and hope that it will provide a connection from my dedicated media cabinet to my projector for at least a few years in the future, so I'm going to charge the slightly exorbitant price tag Consider the price of this cable money well spent. Edit: Although this cable worked great, I returned it a few days later and bought two significantly cheaper Ruipro fiber optic cables, both of which worked fine for my needs as well.
