Good Buy - Does What It Needs To

Works great and does exactly what I needed. Was relatively easy to pull through my walls since it is a pretty flexible cord as well. One note is that the High Speed HDMI cables are NOT symmetrical - you need to make sure you have the correct ends connected to the source and display. The ends are clearly labeled, but that wasn't something I was looking for and of course installed it backwards.

Ethereal Velox 8K Fiber Ultimate High Speed HDMI Cable

So far so good. Have it run from Lumagen to Projector and is working fine. No drop outs so far.

Not good for in-wall installs

Far too bulky of a head to install in-wall combined with the delicateness of fiber. Recommend avoiding this technology for in-wall installations despite the description suggesting it can do so. Typical wall thicknesses and low voltage box setups with keystones make this cable near impossible to deal with.

Works as advertised

Great product, works as advertised, no signal transmission issues. I purchased this cable due to the distance between my a/v components and my TV. I have a Panasonic 4k Blu-ray player (DP-UB9000P1K) and an LG 75" 4k TV (75SM9070PUA). The two components are approximately 20 feet apart and I didn't want any signal degradation that you get with copper cables. I did have a problem with one of the 2 USB power cables supplied. The USB cables power the Fiber transceivers at each end of the cable. The cable came with a bad connector (intermittent connection) that plugged into the HDMI connector. I contacted Crutchfield customer service and they sent me a replacement power brick . I had to contact them again to clarify that I needed the USB cable. Customer service then sent the cable, problem solved. Crutchfield customer service folks were very friendly and helpful. Will purchase products again from Crutchfield.

Great!

These are top notch cables and my picture is better than ever. They are pricey, but with the performance they provide with a lifetime warranty, I feel it is worth it. To those of you who have newer devices with the 2.1 HDMI standard, you don't need the power adapters that are provided with this cable. I'm completely satisfied with my purchase, thank you Crutchfield!

Didnt work

I was very hopeful, but it still didn't help push the signal from receiver to projector very well. I received a signal after 15 minutes when adding a HDMI boost to the setup. Switched to HDMI extender over CAT for a much better result.

Expensive, but worth in on 10m length

Cost more than I wanted to spend, but I had trouble with eARC dropping out with other 8k cables in 10m length and these work great. System is only as good as the weakest link, and the long 8k hdmi run was mine.

So far so good

Working as expected. I was able to power the display end of the cable using a USB port on the TV which helps cut down on the clutter. My only complaint is the lack of an option to remove the connector body from the cable. I'd like to run one of these to my projector but with the bulk of the connector body it won't fit in the flex duct I have running to it. I'm also not exactly sure what they are expecting you to do with the screw plate option. I have never seen an HDMI chassis connector with a threaded hole next to it to accept that screw.
