Pangea Audio's HD23PC Premier SE HDMI cable features the highest purity 6% silver-plated Cardas Grade One Copper for the vital signal conductors and is intended for best performance with high-resolution signals. This design makes the cable a must-have for audiophiles transmitting high resolution audio files over HDMI as well, as well as for video fans who want the absolute best sound possible from their high-end home theater processors. We strongly recommend Premier SE HDMI for anyone who owns the very best Blu-ray players - especially the Oppo BDP-105 and new Oppo UDP-205 4K machines. This cable is perfect for all 4K applications, since it delivers the best signal with the lowest loss in both short and longer HDMI cable runs. HDMI cable performance varies wildly due to two factors: the raw materials and how they are employed. It's one thing to use fine materials. However, if they are not manufactured correctly the resulting cable will not be of uniform impedance and will betray signal loss even in short lengths. Premier SE HDMI starts with the finest available copper - the incredible Cardas Grade One Copper - and insulates it with premium Nitrogen-Injected Polyethylene Multi-Layer Foam. This special insulation is crucial because it provides significantly lower signal loss than lesser materials. Pangea's Premier SE HDMI cable makes premium performance highly affordable. It uses superior materials and an approach based on substantial research, development, and expert insights, providing benefits that you can see hear and see. Pangea Premier SE HDMI cable uses no-compromise Cardas Grade One Copper, which George Cardas of Cardas Audio developed for his own premium cables. Premier HDMI is a perfect match for today's ultra hi-res video systems. It meets HDMI 1.4, 4K certification and is certified for "High Speed" applications. The tough nylon braided jacket is both strong and flexible.
