I heard about the Belden 1694A RG-6 SDI/HDTV coax being used by broadcast studios for Hi-Def broadcasts, so I thought I'd give it a try. (If the studios are using it, why not me?) I'd used the "regular" 1694A for a while; it was cheap, and so were the F-connectors. The newer stuff I had done up with good Canare true 75-ohm connectors; a 25-foot run from satellite to receiver, then a four-foot run from receiver to TV. The picture was stunning. I tried it on a similar run from cable converter to TV; again, the picture improved. I've kept the newer Belden and satellite; got rid of the older Belden and cable converter. Prices were about $180 for the cable run and good connectors, about six times more expensive than the older Belden. It might be just "plain old coax" and not fancy interconnects or power cords, but since a lot of viewing is done through RF connections, it was worth it to me.
