Review on Top-Rated 5 Pack - DirecTV Universal High Speed 6FT HDMI Cables for Optimal Performance by Girish Underwood

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good quality thick cable

Good quality thick cable. However, the rubber on the outside of the cable is a little stiff, and due to the way it's constructed and packaged, the cables don't straighten out like softer cables and remain kinked after installation. To straighten it out a bit, I wrapped it around a round cylinder and sprayed it with silicone (this keeps plastic and rubber from oxidizing). The silicone spray also softens the rubber and evens out creases after a few days. I ordered 4 cables of another brand from another seller before I saw them (the 4 cables I ordered cost more than these 5 cables) but the delivery was inexplicably delayed. So I got tired of the wait and ordered these cables after stumbling across them while looking for HDMI cables. These cables arrived earlier than the other order. Now I have 5 spare cables in stock.
