If you aren’t sending the higher resolution signals, then a standard category 1 cable should be sufficient. For example, when you switch on your TV, CEC will automatically turn on your soundbar – or your Blu-ray player will automatically select the correct HDMI input on your TV. HDMI 1.3 added the ability to bitstream HD audio instead. With bitstreaming, the raw HD audio data is sent directly to the amplifier without decoding first. The amplifier then decodes the signal.HDMI 2.0 devices are designed to transfer data up to 18 Gb per second, whereas a ‘high speed’ category 2 cable is only intended to support a maximum of 10.2 Gb per second. A good HDMI cable can reliably go about 10 meters (33 ft). After that, you may need a signal booster. The three-port AV connector is capable of carrying audio as well, it doesn’t need additional cables.

If you are unsure what the video formats mean, see the guide to TV resolutions or what is the refresh rate of your TV? HDMI 1.0-1.1 Video Formats HDMI is the go-to connector for sending high-quality video and audio between your TV, receiver, game console, Blu-ray player, and other home entertainment devices. However, if this is not the case then you should speak to friends and family to see if they have any experience. Their opinion can help you to decide whether to buy or not.

DDC: the display data channel sends EDID data between devices to communicate which media formats and display modes they support. The rectangular connectors are usually silver, but some are gold-plated. The material used will have no impact on performance. Your TV and amplifier/soundbar both need to support HDMI ARC. If not, then you might need to use an optical connection instead.

However, if you are transferring an old video, you may want to retain authenticity by keeping the signal quality as close to the original as possible.

You can only compare up to four products at a time.

The physical cables used to connect devices are actually the same, it’s the output from your device that affects your image quality. Of course, it may seem strange to think about not being able to access high-definition images but that is still true for many electrical items. In contrast, the component AV cable has three ports and three cables, allowing it to transfer higher quality video as the image is split into three parts. This increases the amount of data that the cable can handle and improves the image. But, it is still not HD quality. This means a ‘standard speed’ category 1 cable has been tested to transfer data at 742 Mb per second for a single data pair – or 2.2 Gb per second for the three combined. This is the equivalent of a 720p or 1080i video signal. Category 2 HDMI Cables Materials: Most cables have a standard protective PVC plastic exterior and shielding to prevent signal interference. Some brands will come with a nylon braided cord, making the cable more flexible and easier to move in tight spaces. Otherwise, it just makes it looks nice. It shouldn’t matter either way for most people, but a more flexible and smaller cable may ease installation.
