    How long do you need the HDMI cable to be? If it's a short run (e.g. 1/2m), this is okay and cheap:

    For 5m or longer, I used Mark Grant cables:

    If you happen to need a 3 metre one superfi have this Qed one on offer for £12-95 http://www.superfi.co.uk/p-3706-qed-...-3-metres.aspx down from £40rrp. I've personally got a few foo ones but all bought at bargain bucket prices, I don't really think there are any noticable benefits to picture quality but all mine are decently shielded, feature nice connectors & certainly seem robust & solidly built...I personally don't mind paying a little extra for this, but wouldn't pay foo prices either Amazons not a bad place to look either as they generally have good deals on Qed & the like.

    I recommend these:

    I bought some recently when they were doing Buy 1 get 2 FREE !! Cost me £2 for 3 cables inc shipping. They appear nice and sturdy and well constructed and do exactly what they are supposed to.

    I'm impressed with the "Amazon basics" range as good as anything I've had and under a tenner!
