HDMI cables and HDMI vers. 1.3

[hauntnut]

Haven't been able to locate any confident information about this topic, so any help and info is appreciated...

I have recently purchased the Toshiba HD-XA2 HD-DVD player and the Onkyo TX-SR605S receiver, both of which are equipped with HDMI vers. 1.3 outputs and inputs. Is there a specific type of HDMI cable that I would need to purchase in order for the HDMI 1.3 to work properly, or are all HDMI cables pretty much the same?

Well, they aren't all the same, but you can purchase any normal HDMI cable. We tend to recommend monoprice.com for these.

There has been talk of a new connector being a choice with HDMI 1.3, but that hasn't surfaced yet.

Does anyone know if the Sony KDS-55A2020 is HDMI 1.3 capable?? I have a PS3 as well that I know is 1.3.. Just wondering if I should get a 1.3 HDMI cable or not
