Hi Ange
All HDMI leads are the same, they will all fit your TV & box its just different quality leads.
I personally don't think there is much difference in quality between a £20 HDMI cable and a £80 one but that is open for debate.

I have 3 of them between £15 and £30 and get great quality pictures with all.

HDMI leads are HDMI leads - there is no high quality ones, nor low quality ones.

I suspect the difference you see is purely psychological.

Comet and the like will try and sell you a £80 HDMI lead. A £3.99 from Ebuyer will do the same job, so will bell wire!

thanks for replies i tried virgin last week was hard work trying to explain that i needed a lead, he didnt have a clue what i was on about i couldnt understand him so i gave up, thought it would be easier just to order one off net.
Think i will order from ebayer like that price

Of course-then you will get the upscaled picture from all channels-who on earth is going to buy a HD set-then V-Box ,and not view HD?.
The HDMI lead is supplied free from Virgin anyway.:o
