I needed a 30ft HDMI cable to connect my Yamaha RX-V483 to an Epson 5040UB 4K projector. This is my second cable that still delivers stunning flicker free images. My first try with a Huaham HDMI fiber was so bad that I only got inverted colors and constant flickering at 4k 30Hz. But this cable doesn't seem to have any problems. Pros: - Braided cable, feels more comfortable than normal SPDIF cable. - Metal housing and gold-plated connectors. (Judging by the pictures I really thought it was plastic but it isn't) Cons: - No color options. would even pay for a white one to match the setup
