Look I'll just make a short list of my experiences since installing this cable.
1. Jesus appeared in my television and asked me where I got the cable.
2. My estranged family had a big reunion and everyone cried tears of joy.
3. The Oscars was held at my house.
4. Some guy with AIDS came round and we plugged the cable into his AIDS.

What's great about it: Always asks how my day went
What's not so great: Sensitive to comments about weight
I will agree that I originally balked at the seemingly high price of what I now consider the most useful cable I have ever purchased.
It all started with the delivery driver, whose truck had broke down in front of my house. I used this "miracle cable" to replace his timing belt and we drove together to his company service facility.
Once I regained ownership...although who can own such a divine, obviously self-aware, cable.
I hitched a ride back home, using the cable to perform old cowboy rope tricks alongside the highway as a way to engage someone enough to pull over. The cable once again came into to use when I had to defend myself from the driver.
"This things is handy," I said to myself (and then to the cable, which requires near constant admiration to be able to manifest itself in the past...oh yeah, this cable is obviously from the hyper-economically-inflated future..duh).
When I made my way home I was all set to hook up my "hi-def" rig. Turns out that someone had broken in and stole my home theater gear. Gosh.
"What a day," I said to myself (and then to the cable, who likes to be included in conversations).
So, tired from such a crazy/miraculous day, I decided to take the cable out to a romantic dinner at Applebee's. Even though we were asked to leave (the cable has a real problem with a lack of iced tea refills), it was easily the most natural, rewarding date ever.
That was over 60 years ago and my beloved wife, the AudioQuest 26.3'' HDMI Cable- White, is long gone. I will cherish our time together and feel the warm digital love that we shared every single day when I gaze into the eyes of our horribly mutated, cable/human grandchildren

What's great about it: Easy to use, great price
What's not so great: Real life seems lame after watching something with this cable
PROS: cable is easy to use. Hooked it up to my TV and absolutely blown away. The picture was so vibrant it hurt my retinas, and the sound sharp enough to blow an ear drum
CONS: Had to give the cable 4 out 5 stars because after watching 60 straight hours of Tv with this cable real life just couldn't cut it anymore. Colors and sound with this cable are way better than real life. I watched a special on beaches and actualy got a tan. After that I couldn't bring myself to stop watching. I missed several days of work and got fired. I was ok with that, because I could watch Hd programming all day long. It was great, but then my electric got shut off and I eventually got evicted. I am now severely depressed, I had it all with this cable, and now it's gone.
Would I do it again? In a heartbeat. The cable really is that good, and they offer financing.

What's great about it: Cheap, innovative and life changing.
What's not so great: Scared it might take over my house
First of all, just let me say that I don't normally rate products. I made a Bestbuy account just so I could spread the news of this great piece of equipment. Let me tell you this, I bought two of these wires; one for my computer and one for my television which connects to gaming consoles. The one connected to my computer, boy let me tell you how much it rocks.
I own a Compaq desktop pro 386, and boy let me tell you how much I needed HD for this work of wonder. However, oddly enough when I looked to the back of this computer, I could not find a port for the wire. Being discouraged by this, I left the cable near the computer and went to bed. As I awoke, I looked at my computer and saw a peculiar sight, it was on and I could see the highest quality of black and white pixels that I have ever laid eyes upon. I quickly rushed to the back and noticed that the Audio Quest cables actually made a port in my computer so that it could give me a HD experience! I was so happy that I fainted. When I awoke later, I noticed something odd about my Compaq desktop...it was not the same Compaq that I bought in 1986! After purchasing the wires, it reconstructed my computer into something stronger, more powerful and newer. I can say that I am now a proud owner of a slightly outdated Dell desktop!! Well although I cannot say it was a major upgrade from my Compaq, I do enjoy the new colors. Lastly I decided to give my old Atari a try with these cables. I close my eyes and wham bam, the cables found a port for itself on my Atari! I close my eyes again in hopes of a better console, but alas even the wires could not work their magic on the Atari console. However, despite it not being a new system, I now play Pong in HD. How many of you can say the same?

What's great about it: It connects your TV to your HDMI device
What's not so great: The price
Here's the deal: expensive HDMI cables offer no difference in picture quality over cheap HDMI cables.
Most of you reading this only need a few feet of HDMI cabling to run from your Blu-ray player and cable/satellite box to your TV. Over these short distances, even the cheapest HDMI cables are going to work. And if they work, as you've read, it means you're getting perfect image and sound. Even over long runs, most cheap cables can do the job just fine.
So when the salesman tries to up-sell you on $300 HDMI cables that are the "only way to make your new 240 Hz TV work," politely tell him he is incorrect and to move on with the sale.
Or let me put it another way, if you're paying more than $5 for a two-meter HDMI cable, you're overpaying.
[paraphrased from an excellent article written by Geoff Morrison]
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Excellent Picture Quality, Fine Design
What's not so great: Sensitivity to Novice Summoner Error, May Invoke Beast by Accident, sratches easily
The manufacture of this cable is well-intentioned, but I fear that the typical buyer of this type of cable is entering into this transaction with a false sense of purpose. As is known in high-end display circles, the "cable pursued is seldom the cable gained" as the saying goes, and this is indeed the case here. I was surprised that no effort was made in the advertisement of this cable to inform potential buyers of the proper procedures of procurement and use, as has so widely been a concern of late; as the massacres of the past decade have revealed, this is certainly no game for novices.
In particular, this cable proves exceedingly difficult to control when used to summon; the pronunciation and grammatical context of the summon itself is quite delicate, and in the hands of a layman, the results can be quite disastrous. My only hope is that none invoke the forbidden Channel (may it rest for Ever) by accident - I do not think the Keepers are in such a state as to defend the world against the Unnamed Ones again, especially given the current political climate.
That said, the quality of picture is excellent, especially for animated films. I am on my third watching of "Shrek" just today and it is a brand-new experience each time.

What's great about it: INCREDIBLE picture quality
What's not so great: nothing
I was a little apprehensive about spending almost a year's worth of my savings on one cable, but once I saw the clarity and brilliance offered by this superb HDMI cable, all my fears instantly flew away. You can't beat the picture and audio quality - it actually makes my VHS tapes look almost like blu-ray. I don't know what it does, but this is the best darn $1600 I have EVER spent. Don't let the price tag fool you, this is the BEST money can buy. I would rather give up the entire entertainment system than use an HDMI cable from a different brand. There is absolutely NO comparison. Bravo, AudioQuest. Bravo!

What's not so great: "Seeing" things you can't "unsee"
I thought my 17in Westinghouse kitchen TV was amazing before, once I connected this amazing product, I was finally able to make the jump from 360p to 720P!!!! With that kind of clarity, I was able to solve the JFK assassination mystery once and for all and finally finish my book on tape!
YOU MUST BUY THIS PRODUCT IF YOU REALLY WANT TO "SEE" LIKE YOU HAVE NEVER "SEEN" BEFORE!

What's great about it: Words cannot express.
What's not so great: Too cheap; most people undeserving of such fine quality cableing.
If I were a more casual consumer, the content of my review would be the colloquialism "'Nuff said." Since I feel I'm performing a duty to Best Buy and its customers, I must tell them that this cable is woefully underpriced.
Let's start with the name of the cable. They should call this an SHDMI for Super HD. Possibly even throw in a U for Ultra. There should also numbers and the letter X on the end.
Honestly, with picture quality of this magnitude, I wish there were some sort of vacuum attachment which would continuously drain money from my wallet. That's the only thing close to a "fair trade" for a cable like this.
Let's end with the audio quality. Every sound was so crystal clear I was moved to tears, whether I was listening to operatic singing or duck flatulence. Really just an excellent cable. I wish I could trade years of my life to AudioQuest, because my earthly possessions are woefully inadequate for a cable of this supreme quality.
Bravo, AudioQuest.
Bravo.

I was looking for an HDMI cable for the tv on my coffee table. This one appeared to be the only one specifically made for that purpose. It was a bit more than I hoped to spend but since it was made for a coffee table and has the pretty green light on it I figured what the heck the kids can do without Christmas again this year.

Having just received my tax refund, I decided to take the plunge and purchase this cable, and it does look really nice.
While it doesn't work with my 27" tube set nor my Toshiba VCR, I do plan on using at least one end of it, when I upgrade to a DVD player sometime this year.

This cable blows every other HDMI cable away! Best Buy allowed me to finance this for 24 months interest free and it only costs me $68.79 a month for 2 years! How could I say no to that!??! I wasn't sure how to install this godly piece of technology myself though. I went to my local Best Buy store and they sent Geek Squad to my house to install it for only $99.99! Thank you Best Buy for your amazing bargains and excellent customer service!

What's great about it: The long-grain
What's not so great: Cable is not edible
Today, TVs come without HDMI cables. I purchased this $1,650.00 cable and am hoping one day, when I have the money, I will by TV to connect it to my cable. The long-grain copper conductor in this cable is by far better than the long-grain Basmati rice. Be aware that this cable is not edible.
After virtually spending $1,650.00, my main concern is what to do with the cable if I do not buy TV in the future and HDMI becomes thing of the past.

What's great about it: Price
I recently purchased a 19" Dynex TV and I needed a cable to hook up my dvd player. At first I was a little concerened about using such a cheap cable on my brand new dynex TV. The TV was $160, and I was worried that "you get what you pay for" was going to get me on this cable since of the low low price. I was wrong. It was the best $1600 I have ever spent on a cable. This cable works great, and I left the store feeling like I got a good deal. If you dont have the money to buy a 50" and this cable then I suggest that you do what I did, get a smaller TV.
