Stay, you can get a good cable from most reputable online resellers.
The rest of you, keep it on topic or move on.

There's no such thing as a "better quality" cable when it comes to digital. It either works perfectly, or not at all. There's not even any room for the minor improvements that the monster cables offered with analog, with thier airtight, nitrogen filled cables... however there may be differences in the standard, as in hdmi 1.0 to hdmi 1.4

always buy the cheapest hdmi cables you can find. there is no difference in image or sound quality between cheap and expensive cables

edit: i just noticed 7 ft requirement. anyone got experience if cheap cables have issues at that length. my educated guess is no.

I'm 90% positive HDMI is only single-link DVI (HDMI does not have data3, data4, and data5 pins) which means it has a maximum of 1920x1200. The only way to get higher than that is HDMI (1.3 or higher) -> HDMI (1.3 or higher) or DVI dual link -> DVI dual-link.


Personally, I'd get one of these:

And a standard HDMI cable.
