Best HDMI cable

[ajay556]

I am using PS audio DS stream with PS audio transport. What is the best HDMI cable to use...

Nordost Blue Heaven or Audioquest diamond?

 

Nordost did have the audioquest diamond at the show for comparison which i did not attend. Wanted to see if anyone else did or have any information.

They have Wireworld Platinum Starlight 7 as well so that could be another candidate in the same price range.

However, it could be good idea to (double) check with PS Audio and find out whether DirectStream is actually affected by the quality of HDMI cables or not (YMMV)

Well, not to be disappointed. Indeed we said DirectStream is far more insensitive to cables and sources than anything we've yet found with respect to DACs. That was and is true.
