THX Ltd. has announced commercial availability of THX Interconnect cables. Designed in partnership with Pixelgen, the THX Interconnect HDMI 2.1b cables are built to deliver uncompressed signals at maximum speeds for the next generation of displays, game consoles, and speaker setups in the living room, in home theater and for any set up to enjoy entertainment through digital devices.
“Cables are essential for fidelity. When it comes to home theaters, a last thought might be the cable connections, but the reality is that until you have robust, reliable, highly compatible and flexible cable connection you won’t get the best fidelity out of your equipment, no matter how high end it is,” said Jack MacDougall, CEO of Pixelgen Design Inc. “We have solved that for you and are proud to offer this family of products to meet most every home theater size and configuration. This will be one investment in your home theater that you can count on for years to come.”
THX Interconnect cables come in a variety of lengths ranging from 0.5m (1.64 ft) up to 15m (49.2 ft) while keeping an ultra-thin and flexible size. For sizes starting at 7.6m and longer, PXLGLASS Hybrid Fiber/Copper technology adds robustness and flexibility to accommodate any home theater layout and design. Prices range from USD$39.00 to $399.00.
All sizes are available for orders today. Packaging of all lengths ship in recyclable packaging, and the longer length cables ship in a collector’s item film tin for home theater and cinema aficionados to add to their collections.
