Well in this episode I would like to talk about audio and video cables, something I
like to call the artery of our home entertainment (home theater, DVD player, TV,
Radio, etc.).
The audio and video cables are something important as any home entertainment
equipment that you or I have in our house, yeah that’s right because our audio and
video cables are like I said before, the artery of our home entertainment. Think
about it, any human body can’t live without healthy arteries, so any home
entertainment equipment can’t be 100% functional and give you a 100% what they
can give/make without quality cables.
Do you want crystal clear in you LCD T.V without interference? you need better
cables than the ones you got with your T.V; Do you want a better sound in your
equipment?, you need better cables… well I think you understand what I am
saying… am I right?
To ensure you that you will get the best for your money, let me explain you a little
bit about the audio and video cables…
the audio and video cables must transmit with the least amount of electrical
resistance. Your video cable should be 75 ohms, What’s impedance? It’s a
measurement of a cable’s inherent resistance to the flow of audio and video signals.
I remember that the less electricity resistance the better the video signal and that’s
what you and I want for sure.
interference such a mobile-phone, telephone, microwave, etc and for that some
cables use braided copper shields, others use foil shielding, and some use both
(double-shielding) to protect your music and video signals.
means less electrical resistance, the less electrical resistance the better audio/video
signal between ends.
(those two are one of the best conductors of electricity), any cable made of
aluminum wire is a poor, poor conductor of electricity. Another great conductor is
the fiber optic cable, it conduct the sound using light to transmit audio signals with
almost no of interference.
has to be gold for better connection, or better yet, gold-platted to avoid corrosion
and better yet, I don’t know if you are a mac-fan, but there are cables like the
Macbook that resist when you accidently unplug it.
While the technology and quality of the equipment continues to improve and the
prices are down ( ? technology + ? prices= new DVD in our room?), the cables are
not same level (at least the ones which come inside in the box), at least are they
free.. jejeje
Finally, I would like to introduce the cables that for me are the best… the monster
cables without a doubt are the best in the market, at least for me, it’s my opinion,
you may have a different one, but don’t miss something important when you’re
going to buy any audio and video cable, the facts and the tips that I am giving you
today, ok?
good luck.
