    Can someone advise?
    I need to purchase a HDMI cable and was hoping someone could suggest how much I should spend on one.
    The one I was originally using for my 360 I paid £20 sterling for. Its not gold plated.
    My Sister bout a Tv last Christmas and was Charged €99!!!!! for her's. She was buying a 42" Tv with a Home Cinema system but I still think that she was robbed. She bought it a a very famous Retail chain (bout to sneeze ahhhcooHnormans)
    What price is a good price for a good cable. Xtra Vision do one for €20, if I spend more and get a gold plated connection will it make any difference?
    IMO. I don't think so. My LCD isn't state of the Art (Acoustic Solutions) which I'm using as a monitor right now. But I played HALO 2 recently and it looked amazing.
    Any Suggestions?

    Unless you're connection to a 50''+ plasma, just get a standard HDMI cable for around €10, I wouldn't pay any more than €20 for one if I was stuck. I have a €3 no brand and a €40 logitech HDMI cable, both do the same job.
