    o/t Best place to buy a cheap HDMI (ARC) cable in Rotherham?

    I have been reliably informed that there is no difference in quality between a cheap HDMI cable and an expensive one.

    What is the best place in Rotherham....I will include Meadowall, to buy a cheap cable?

    HDMI Cable 1m Version 1.4 - 19-pin Male to Male for connection between two HDMI devices. Ideal for set-top boxes, DVD players and games consoles.

    Pound shop near Superdrug.
    Yes they are reliable.

    According to ones son (Computer Technician) you only loose quality of signal if the cable is over a certain length (which escapes me now)
    Anything at 1 - 2 m long then a cheapo HDMI functions as good as an expensive one

    I've had loads of experiences which tell me otherwise, but if saving a couple of quid is important then go for it mate.

    Much appreciated. I assume they will work with blu-ray players?

    Sorry IBS I was referring to ‘cheap’ cables which are junk. I agree that the more expensive ones are not worth the extra.
