does the studio xps 16 use a type A or B connector ?

just want to know as im going to order a 5m hdmi cable for it as im still awaiting the machine , and im going to plug it into my 52inch lcd tv

anyone else have any experience with hooking it upto the tv , does the sound transmit without any hassle ?

 

What are your cable options? I've only ever seen male to male HDMI cables.

edit: Confirmed: the XPS has a female port, you need a cable with a male end (type a) (picture from XPS 16 review).

 

same here but when looking for the maximum cable length i found a site that mentioned the different types of connectors , i myself have only ever had to deal with one type , and it was the cable i got with my xbox360 elite , i used that cable with the ps3 too and when i had my pc rigged upto the tv i had a dvi to hdmi cable for that ,

i was just wanting to make sure its like the normal connector as knowing my luck i would go buy one and it would not fit

 

I edited my above post; there is a picture of the connector under the word 'Confirmed'.

 

Yep I have experiene with it: http://vimeo.com/4777215
I'm using a standard gold plated HDMI 1.3 cable from monoprice.

 

thanks guys just had to make sure i didnt have to buy some non standard cable
