Moderators Youthman Posted November 1, 2012 Moderators Share Posted November 1, 2012 Anyone seen this yet? I think it's great they are finally making thinner HDMI cables. The 40ft HDMI cable I'm using now from Monoprice is huge and requires a really wide curve to bend. Just like technology to get faster and smaller.

TasDom Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 I bought a half dozen of these when I bought my pre/pro. They have been great so far. Keep in mind that they are directional and need to be connected properly. They do come labeled with source / output. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted November 1, 2012 Author Moderators Share Posted November 1, 2012 That's great to hear that you like them. I'm using this 40' HDMI cable from my PS3 to my Projector. As you can see, it's a super thick cable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drox Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 I upgraded to all Redmere cables (regardless of length) and they are nice cables, have a 60ft one and has no problem with signal. Looks as good if not better then my old thick cable. Bends nicer too. I wish they would have made the ultra thin ones in black like they have at the beginning of the video, they just have then in white for now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea and they show it plain as day at the beginning of the description video. I like the lower profile of the "ultra thin cable" connector but hate the white. A little tech flex and heat shrink fixed it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TasDom Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 I'm using this 40' HDMI cable from my PS3 to my Projector. As you can see, it's a super thick cable. Wow! I have 2 just like that. One in my front yard and one in the back for watering![] lol that looks like a beast. I can't imagine trying to bend that if needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted November 1, 2012 Author Moderators Share Posted November 1, 2012 Wow! I have 2 just like that. One in my front yard and one in the back for watering! That was hillarious. [] Here is an old pic during my HT Build that shows my HDMI Cable. As you can see, it'sa pretty awkward "bend" coming from the ceiling and then having to make a 90 degree turn into the back of the projector.

wstrickland1 Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I bought a cable from Sams Club that came with a 90 degree adapter. It works great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaddeus Smith Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 i'm using monoprice flat hdmi cables. i have like a 35 foot and a 15 foot from my AVR to TV. I was getting some handshake and sprite issues with just the 35 footer, so i added one of these and the 15ft cable with no issues. much easier to work with than their heavy cables, but also more prone to signal issues over long distances since it uses smaller gauge wire. http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=104&cp_id=10419&cs_id=1041914&p_id=2849&seq=1&format=2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roaddog359 Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I use one. I got it as soon as it was released. I tried it to see if it would stop the HDMI issues with the UMC-1 and it did not, so thats when I replaced the UMC-1 with the denon 4311ci. No issues with the cable and denon.

Moderators Youthman Posted January 4, 2013 Author Moderators Share Posted January 4, 2013 I ordered this 6ft cable from monoprice. I knew it was small but didn't realize how small. I love it. Works great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willland Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Michael, Nice plug for your alter ego's side business.[][Y] You are smarter than the average bear. By the way, those cables are cool.[H] Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted January 4, 2013 Author Moderators Share Posted January 4, 2013 Nice plug for your alter ego's side business. Ha! I knew someone might say that. I actually took that photo earlier this week and texted it to a friend of mine (originally had no thought of putting it on the forum). I needed something small to compare size of the cable to. Business card was pretty small and fit inside the circle. [] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators dtel Posted January 4, 2013 Moderators Share Posted January 4, 2013 Business card was pretty small and fit inside the circle Didn't realize that was a business card until mentioned, that is much smaller. [Y] Glad to see it's from monoprice also. Nice looking card also [co] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted January 4, 2013 Author Moderators Share Posted January 4, 2013 Didn't realize that was a business card until mentioned, that is much smaller. Yes, standard size business card. Helps to put the size of the cable in perspective. It's more in line with an iPod cable than the standard HDMI cables I am used to using from Monoprice. Nice looking card also Thanks [] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang guy Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 FYI, I am using a 60' RedMere cable from my Integra DHC 80.3 to my Epson 5020UB at HDMI 1.4a and it works great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
