Are these cables HDCP compliant?

Ryan, all hi speed HDMI cables are HDCP. Marking any HDMI cable as HDCP is a sales gimmick, not based in science. HDCP depends upon the components on either end of the cable, not the cables themselves. These are well made cables and look nice too. I hate to hide them behind my equipment! They have very solid end connectors and mine have a blue and grey tweed fabric look covering. I have several sets of very cheap black ones from a different manufacturer that work OK except for one set that has an internittent connection due to a flimsy end connector. I don't think the cheapies would take frequest plugging and unplugging as well as the Twisted Veins. I work as a DJ and bass player so I work with cables all the time. Cables don't tend to break in the middle but at the ends. These are molded on nicely. BTW, hi speed a HDMI cable works or don't work. The expensive ones (like Monster cable) don't give any better picture or sound and I found that my Monster cables with RCA connectors were just awful because they were too thick and stiff to stay snug in the sockets when plugged in. The same goes for Monster speaker cable. Unless you are going a long distance (over 50 feet) there is no noticeable degradation of sound quality due to wire impedance. Save your money! Sorry Monster.

I agree with Mark, it seems that anytime there's a new type of tech, there is always some type of hype also.Use your best judgment.

Mine are working well. Nothing bad to say about them at all. Been about 2 years since I installed them on my HTPC, and yep...all is well.

Yes. I used a HDMI cable only to connect. Of course that does not mean old tapes or DVDs are HD but they are the same.

Yes. However these are two 3 foot cables. Just keep that in mind. These cheap hdmi cables are just as good as the $$$ ones.

I have mine running though my Onkyo TX-SR705, which to my knowledge utilizes the HDCP handshake and never had any issues whatsoever. I get full 1080p video output as well as full high def audio without fail.

Yes, an HDMI cable is a universal connection type cable. Similar to let's say a USB cable or connection. The current version is V 1.3

1.3b might work depending on the bit/px of the original signal but is not officially supported. Check out wikipedia, they have a very nice graph showing what each version is certified to carry.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hdmi#Version_comparison

From what I have been able to find out about these cables, they are 1.4. They are supposed to support 4k and 3D. I am using 2 of them and have had no problems with Blue Ray.Hope this helps

I beleive that HDCP stripping only occurs on port 4, I can confirm that it definitely strips this on unit.

I believe these cables are HDMI 2.0 certified and thus will support bandwidth of up to 18 Gbps

Agree on that. I ordered 2 colored, cert Cat2 cables for less than $5 each, plus USPS shipping. Rated for the highest speeds specified for 1.3 HDMI. Cables are shipped out of southern CA.

Yes it is. The hdmi cable is what enables your tv and receiver to create the hi def experience. These cables are good. You don't need the fancy stuff.

You'd need to have an HDMI to component signal converter box to do that; and even then you might have problems when you go to play stuff because of HDCP protection kicking in.

I would contact Monoprice support to confirm this, but I don't think that will work. I think that you would need another device connected to the output of the switch to handle the HDCP handshaking. Such as a TV with HDMI and HDCP. Monoprices online chat customer service is pretty knowledgeable about these products.
