Monster 8K HDMI Cable — Xbox Series X & PlayStation 5 HDMI Cable w/ 24K Gold Contacts & V-Grip, 48 Gbps Speed, 60/120 Hz Refresh Rate, Dynamic HDR & eARC for Superior Visuals & Audio (6 FT)

So over the passed few years I’ve had a problem with my Blu-ray player cutting out on me. Suddenly the picture would disappear. Sound but no picture. I thought it might be the hdmi input on the back of the tv as there was a little play in there. I feared this would’ve been an expensive fix.I decided to give this a try and it worked. Perfect picture now. They’re worth every penny.

Good clear picture and sound

Was having issues with a regular hdmi cable connected to my 98” tv with my PlayStation. Was cutting the video feed out intermittently. I don’t think it was handling the video load needed. Replaced it with this and it’s been flawless Great cable quality

I bought the two-pack of 2 foot cables for about $27 at the time of this writing.They're a DEFINITE IMPROVEMENT over the stock ones which came with my Nvidia Shield and high-end ($750) Vizio sound bar.I'd heard short cables "could" effect the timing signal inherent in HDMI 3.1 cable construction. No such issues here, I can detect.The picture quality was similar to my old cables BUT with a BIG improvement in sound quality. Which was a main focus for me with the new sound bar. Using the old Vizio included, HDMI cable just didn't cut it at all which I found rather highly surprising. I'd opted to using Optical output instead, for the sound quality I desired.These new 2 foot Monster Cables did finally surpass the much older Toslink Optical output in fine quality sound.The difference is pronounced. And these are my very first HDMI cables which have lived up to the promise of, "superior HDMI 5.1 surround sound quality".I'd used Monster cables for "Component" type inputs in many years past with great results, but never encountered any other single HDMI cable which lived up to the promise of superior HDMI sound.These finally pleased my ears enough to permanently use them.Monster still makes quality cables in spite of intense market competition from cheaper, generally, Chinese cables which so many seem to rave about. But those don't always cut it!Higher quality cables are well worthwhile if you watch a lot of content over many years.These 2' Monster ones are in fact, a good buy!They got this review ONLY because they earned it.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I have always used the Monster cables. I was a little concerned about these being the real thing as they were only packaged in plastic. They are performing well so far on my new Sony and LG TV's.

I was having an issue with the digital handshake between my TV & receiver that caused black screen blinking. Switching to the higher speed cable seems to have fixed the issue so far.

Cable works even better than expected. The improvement of picture quality and speed was absolutely noticeable. Couldn’t be happier. Will definitely buy again.

Nice very good condition and fast shipping thank you
