I only use HDMI cables that are hand made by amazonian virgins using the finest braided unicorn hair to connect my devices....

....but If Tandy have run out of them then I get the cheap ones from Poundland....seem to do the job on my 4k TV...

£7 delivery to Belfast. The original robbing barstewards, still at it. How come other sites can deliver stuff like this either for free or a nominal charge but gangsters like this rip the **** clean out of it. Effin' disgraceful.

In case anyone is interested, CEX are buying these cables for £28, selling for £3,000.

And ebuyer are looking a further £50+vat to ship one of these to Belfast.

Comes with free UK delivery! Prime not required. :smiley:

LMAO WTF!!!

Let me help

No, any cable will do, there is no difference in the cables.
1.4, 2.0 etc refer to the hdmi specifications, not the cables, which remain the same.
There will be no differences in color depth, frame rates etc between a £1 cable from poundland and a £1000 cable from... well... don't knwo from where

You're still confused. There is NO SUCH THING as a v1.4 (or any other v1.x, 2.0 etc) HDMI cable. There are standard speed (first, original type when HDMI was released) and high speed HDMI cables (plus Ethernet ones of the same standard/high speed variety). ANY £1 (for example) high speed HDMI cable, if it's not faulty or 'fake' or missing pins etc etc, will carry a 4K signal just as well as any £60 one or one that states all sorts in the description.

There is a new cable verification standard being introduced - 'Premium High Speed HDMI Cable and Premium High Speed HDMI Cable with Ethernet', but they are just the same high speed cables that have ben sent for testing and then been verified to work by HDMI licensing, and manufactures will be allowed to state that on the packaging. No doubt his involves an expense, that will be passed onto consumers, but in use these cables will be no different to a working cheapo high speed HDMI cable.

So the only reason one of your "1.4s" are not up to the task (displaying 4K I assume) then it's because they are faulty.



All High Speed HDMI cables will support 4K functionality when connected to 4K devices.

Once Premium certified cables are more common, I'm pretty certain some people will still have problems displaying 4K content when using a faulty one.

Yes, I agree a certified 1.4 cable would do the job, but a certified 2.0 is an easier option to look for, in most instances for the un aware.

Fact remains, not all 1.4's are up to the task. A 2.0 you will know is..

And I never said £60 curry's specials are better either... *rolls eyes*

No, in order to carry out high bandwidth tasks it needs a cable capable - this can be some 1.4 cables, but surely a cable certified for 2.0 is a safer bet?


Does HDMI 2.0 require new cables?
No, HDMI 2.0 features will work with existing HDMI cables. Higher bandwidth features, such as [email protected]/60 (2160p) video formats, will require existing High Speed HDMI cables (Category 2 cables).

OOS :disappointed:

ordered, made payment,
then received email out of stock despite them showing as in stock when ordered and made payment

Bought a few. I just need my current ones to fail so I can use these.

Anyone know if this supports cec? Cable is literally worthless to me without it

is that a fault?? politicians can say anything and we cannot!!! :wink:

poundland one will save you 60p and it works on my 4k tv

Heat added, one ordered to sit quietly in s draw :smiley:

Ordered thanks op

HDMI specifications (1.4 2.0 etc) refer to the equipment, not the cables.

gold connectors aren't going to make you have a better 1 or 0 being transmitted.

You are talking straight out of your bumhole mate.

Nonsense. Any fully functioning high speed HDMI cable will handle 4K. There is no such thing as 1.4 or 1.3 etc version cables. It's comments like this why people get ripped off in certain hight street stores - yes we all need those £60 HDMI cables.

mmhmmmm

But there is no difference between the cables used for HDMI 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 2.0 etc.... all specifications use the same cables.

Actually "was" £5.73 with free delivery, but still a decent reduction to current price. Thanks.

Thank you, great timing as I looked around today and found they were much, much, much more expensive than this :-)

good find op, heat added

I thought v1.4 was up to 1080p only, v2.0 being 4k?

Thanks op great price don't need them but ordered 3 anyway!

ordered 4 cheers op :wink:

Great deal!

Don't need one but at this price tempted.
