The only company that offers field-terminated HDMIs, still not worth the cost, in this CI's opinion. The do-do cables are just that, butin no way should you have to spend that kind of money to get full HD and 7.1, 8.2, 9.2, or 16.4 surround sound.. Yes, Dolby has a surround sound with 16 discreet speaker signals.. As long as you feel it was worth it, it was...

Is the 'TaterM' review you, there TheSaint? Thats funny sh_t...

For $1700 you should be able to design your own color....

And get delivered with hookers and blow....

:lol: at this review...

My friends advised against this purchase, little did they know. I just giggled at them and bought the extended warranty, like every smart consumer should.Before I plugged it in, I examined the cable thoroughly and noticed intriguing details. One one of the cable, at the top of the connector, it says "SKY", on the other it says "NET", not sure what that means.

Anyway, as I was preparing to plug it in, I heard a barely audible sound. I brought the cable closer to my ear, and I could hear the intro tune of "Walker, the Texas Ranger". In disbelief, I leaned the cable against my other ear and I heard a male voice, with a British accent say: "Tea, Earl Gray, hot"Finally, I plugged the cable into my TV upon which my smartphone beeped, indicated that it's charging even without being plugged in.

As I grabbed the remote to watch my favorite TV shows, I noticed something rather bizarre, the tornado warning for my county went away abruptly and since then, all ads are gone. It's been like this for a week. That makes me sad since I miss the directv ad with that russian.

Not sure if it's related but the following day I received a raise and a promotion as well. My libido skyrocketed and I have yet to see a red light at busy intersections. My kids grade reports came in, they both have straight A's across the board.Overall the setup was easy and the cable is working great so far

Its actually amazing to me that they can convince people to spend more than $20 on a hdmi cable. Its carrying a digital signal (1s and 0s) either the signal makes it through the cable or it doesn't. The only things the quality of a hdmi cable affects are whether or not the signal is passed and the aesthetics and longevity of the cable.

      I just want to see a big guy with an NFL certified cannon arm suit up for the panthers again. To me, it will show that they are at least  trying to take the QB position in the direction it needs to go.   Will he throw picks? Yes. Probably a hell of a lot, but (for now) I’m strangely ok with that… for now. I at least need to see a dude that CAN make the throws with some semblance of accuracy.  This is the time to see what the QB whisperer is made of. The offensive talent is there. It’s certainly better than most rookie/journeymen QBs will ever step in to. If he can get a random dude playing at a JAG level, then I might be sold.  Andy could really surprise in the Buffalo game. He (for now) still has enough arm for Tet and XL to show what they’ve got, but we all know it’s only going to be good for 3-4 games, max. He has vet savvy, and that does account for a lot. He also has a full week of practice with all the snaps to prepare.  My best case scenario going forward: Andy plays the next 2 games nobly (winning one would be a huge bonus) giving White a chance to learn some of the playbook and develop chemistry with the players. Serviceable Andy turns in to old man Andy in game 3 and White takes the field after halftime.  A high ankle sprain (lol, sure it is) is an injury that can buy the team a LONG time for BY to ride the pine…. Maybe even IR. His peak trade value is now. Get what they can for this albatross. He’s now shown that he can be a mid level backup which does hold a significant value for the right team.  Not even in my wildest dreams do I see White being anything more than a JAG, but that’s ok. JAGs with a big arm make great bridge QBs that at least won’t have your play makers stagnating. Keeping BY under center is a 100% recipe for stagnating high ceiling (Tet/XL) dudes and/or not allowing them to take the next step in their development. Why even practice the good half of the playbook if the QB can’t make the throw? After a while, you’ve now got high ceiling guys who can only run a limited route tree. No thanks.
