I bought two of these cables because of the price. While the cable that runs from my DVD player to my tv seems to provide a good picture, when I hooked up my Samsung 32 inch to my cable box from my provider I was dissatisfied with the picture. After buying a new cable from Radio Shack the picture improved significantly. However, buying this Cables to Go cable is worth the risk as it may work with your setup and if it doesn't, you've only wasted $10.
Yeah, that's my 2 .

The first HDMI cable I bought was a Monster cable because I was skeptical that a $10 cable could be as good as a $70 cable. For that kind of price difference, there HAS TO be a benefit to Monster cables, right?
So when this cable showed up from Amazon I decided to give it a side by side test. After comparing this $10 cable with a $70 Monster cable, I found there to be no discernible difference between the two.
I have since bought 2 more of these from Amazon and am using a total of 3 of them. They have all been flawless so far and do not function any better than the outrageously expensive monster cable. If I hadn't thrown out the packaging from the Monster cable, I would return it and get a 4th one of these.
If you're a skeptic like I was, I'm telling you that there is no risk here. Save yourself a lot of money and go with these.

I've purchased several HDMI cables from Cables To Go. They snap in with a positive feedback and silently carry out their assigned mission. Other HDMI cables I tried actually did let me down due to sloppy fit - but not these.

Cables To Go HDMI cable review November 23, 2008

I spent some time reading reviews of HDMI cables. If you do that, you will find that the price differences in cables are mind boggling. It really does appear that retail stores are making up for low margins on electronic equipment by charging outrageous prices for certain peripherals and cables.
I purchased the Cables To Go cables based on reviews which basically said they worked as advertised. They were not the very cheapest but they are much less expensive than the cables found in most retail stores.
When I tested my new OPPO DV-980H upconverting DVD player, I found out that these Cables To Go cables do indeed work as advertised. I initially tested the OPPO DV-980H on a Panasonic Versa HDTV that was supposed to display at 1080p. When I used the HDMI cable suppled by OPPO, the OPPO DVD player would not upconvert to 1080p. So I switched out that cable for one of the Cables To Go cables since they are certified to run 1080p, and the OPPO immediately began to display 1080p. What more can I say, they are reasonably priced, and they work.

Purchased this cable based on cost. Using the cable to connect a cable DVR box to an HDTV, haven't noticed any problems; both picture and sound come in crystal clear. Makes me wonder why other brands of HDMI cables are so expensive.
