Enter to Win: PureLink $299 Self Powered DVI Fiber Optic System

[auge.dog]

Did you know that the cost of connecting your HDTV via fiber optics instead of copper cables starts at just $299 for a 10 foot run?

No, I don't even know the difference b/w connecting with fiber optics and copper cables. What would the advantages be?

Confused about how to go digital?

I have comcast cable with a DVI output and a Westinghouse LCD with 2 DVI inputs. I have a Pioneer 912K receiver with several digital hookups - optical, coaxial, etc., that I have no idea what to do with.

Thanks for the contest.

Didn't know the price, can you tell the difference for that price?


I have Direct TV satelite dish and the rest of my equipment is listed in my signature

 

[muncybob]

I would like to see the difference between copper and these cables...seeing is believing!

Rely to Contest question

I did not know I could so hook up and would be interested in an objective presentation as to the advantages of doing so.

1.Did you know that the cost of connecting your HDTV via fiber optics instead of copper cables starts at just $299 for a 10 foot run?

Answer: No, The copper cables are expensive for 10 feet are expensive. Just want to the know the difference in quality of the picture from copper to fiber optics.

2 Confused about how to go digital?

Answer: No, I currently run a 6 feet copper DVI-HDMI signal to my digital satellite to my plasma TV display, for $39.99.

$300 that's a huge heap of change for cables but if they do there job and do it well thanit would be worth it.

I pretty much already know how to hook anything up though it may take a few tries to get it right.

1. no i didn't know that. 2. I don't have any digital capabilities yet. Hopefully soon i get a new tv and reciever and then can always use some help.

 

[EDDYD]

no, new to this forum

 

[riceaterslc]

1)like others i had no idea you could use fiber optics
2)not so much confused about how to go, but moreso about what to use.

 

[blownrx7]

Yes, I did know that.
Yes, I am confused. Wuith all the formats and all the obsolesence issues, I prefer to sit on the sidelines for a bit.

I've signed up for the audit and look forward to hearing what you have to say.

1. Wow. That's ridiculously expensive. Good thing I don't have such a nice TV right now.
2. When I get something worthy of $300 worth of connectivity, I'll seek out your help (if I don't have too much pride).

 

[kia303]

Was not aware of the price and I signed up for your connectivity audit and it was an eye opener for me.

 

[The Chukker]

Nope. Was not aware of a fiber optic solution for DVI.
I have two digital tv's with DVI in so I could definitely use it

 

[mitsguy]

Yes. I am new to digital video. I do own equipment with DVI and HDMI I/O. I sure would like to win the contest.

Fiber optic cable

I was not aware before recently purchasing a new plasma and some components. It seems somewhat expensive to me but if it is vastly superior to copper I'd be willing to try it. Perhaos I'll even win one!

Didn't know but sounds pretty expensive. Not sure of the benefit.
I would be interested in learning more

 

[treetownal]

No I didn't even know there were fiber optic video cables.

yes I am slightly confused because the technology appears to be in flux, and my primary TV doesn't accept DVI or HDMI, although the bedroom monitor is attached via HDMI.
