HDMI cable, recyling tv

nazali · 09-06-2021, 11:09 AM

do HDMI cables fail ?

I have a home theater -denon to samsung, which has started power cycling every 10 seconds, I found pulling the HDMI to Denon fixes it, I moved it to another HDMI port now a month on and same thing is happening

Trying to prove if it is cable, tv or denon, not sure if denon has another hdmi port out

I do have a spare hdmi cable I can use and the cables are all in situ and dont get moved

txs

Absolutely. HDMI cables are digital, so they either work or they don't. I personally buy all my cables from Cable Matters and have had great luck with their selection.
