HDMI cables -- worthwhile?

[Radical Ice]

$40 bucks for 12 feet of cable...
Do they make a noticeable difference regarding video quality for hi-def or upconverting dvd players??

If you are going from regular RCA cables(red,white,yellow) to HDMI then yes big difference.

From component cables to HDMI..then no you wont see a difference. Alot of people like to try to say they see a difference but side by side you cant tell.

Yes definitely makes a difference. We thought the picture looked like crap before we went and bought one.

+1. not to mention HDMI combines video and sound so your install is a lot cleaner looking. You're swapping a 3-piece component video and a 2-piece audio for one HDMI cable.
