It’s the number one question asked when high definition television is the subject. Is the expensive HDMI cables worth it in terms of quality or cable longevity?

HDMI cable shopping tips:

* Gold plated connections do not increase cable quality or life.

* Length matters very little. Grab a 25′ cable if needed.

* $80 for one cable?! Return it for a universal remote!

Remember these specifications for the current standard:

- HDMI Version 1.3
- At least 6′ in length
- Category 2 Certified
- Shielding from interferance

Example: These HDMI cables right here are perfect. A 3 pack for $6.99!
