Best buy will try to sell you the most expensive cable they have. They all transfer the same video and audio quality. The monsters may seem a whole lot thicker and heavier, but I have never seen any discernible quality between them and the lower priced cables

you wont notice a lot of difference with the hdmi from my understanding. as technology istn really too caught up with that yet. in the future you will. but you will be better off using some rgb cables and what not.
