Unless you're going for a really really long distance (so long you'd have to search for special cables) any cable will do. Either it really works, or it really doesn't. There is no in between. A $3.50 HDMI cable will deliver exactly the same quality as a $150 gold plated Monster cable. Period.

Sorry, should have mentioned... I bought my cables several years ago before there were a lot of lower costed alternatives.

Lets see.... mine was for $6. That's how cheap it is.

I purchased mine a LONG time ago when a 1080i plasma TV cost over 3000 dollars. xD

monoprice.com is awesome
note you dont ALWAYS want to just go for cheapest. You do want to make sure its up to spec and decent material. Monoprices stuff is good.
im totally astounded by what an absurd rip off monster cables are. Especially for digital stuff like HDMI cables

You know what is really a ripoff? Wireless HDMI. Thing is freaking 1 Grand. I can see no reason why you should buy it.
