just to ask does the sound/picture quality get any better when you use the some of these fancy cables like the optical cables, hdmi, and the rest?d'oh!


<<You should know your cables coz some are digital and others analogue>>


With the analogue cables the signal quality will vary based on what kind of cable you are using. Generally the fancier the cable the better the quality. By fancier I mean things like plated connecters, braided cabling, shielded, oxygen free etc.

With digital cables the brand name or how fancy it is doesn't really matter. With digital signals it's either an on or off with an almost insignificant change in quality. Basically with digital cabling, if it looks ok and it works...it will work just as good as a 5x more expensive cable like Monster.

Hisense seems like a new entrant into the market. I am more into traditional brands(loyalty). That said my biggest dillemma is all this addons like...hdmi, smart, i dont know what makes sense or not. My target is to buy something that will be relevant in say 8 years....
