Review on πŸ”Œ Mediabridge HDMI Cable - 6 Feet, High Speed, Hand-Tested, Supports 4K@60Hz and HDMI 2.0 - UHD, 18Gbps, Audio Return Channel by Darren Anderson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not surprised they've changed their return policy, these cables fail at an amazing rate!

Some time ago I bought 7 of these cables for a new home cinema system. I had to hook up a PC, game consoles, Blu-ray and receiver while using another brand of 30ft HDMI that I had to hook up to my 90" LCD. One by one they began to fail. The cables look intact, have they been used in a fully static installation? The system was installed in a closet and replacing it was a major hassle. Look elsewhere and don't fall for a 4.5 star rating. The new HDMI cables (v2+) deviate from the old 1.x specifications. Although nothing has changed in my setup, 6 out of 7 cables have failed. I decided after day 6 to pull them all out and replace them with newer cables. I had a 3 and 6 foot combo so about $100 down the drain. Learn from my mistake.
