Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater HDMI cable length and video balun experience?

1) What's the longest you folks have run HDMI? I may some runs that reach (or exceed) 100'. Both Monoprice and BJC seem to have 100', so I'm assuming that it may actually work.

2) If an HDMI cable doesn't specifically say 1.3a, should I really care?

3) I will be running spare CAT5 cables all over the house. If necessary, I will use video baluns (like Muxlab) in the future if I missed something. Has anyone used these? If so, how was it? I know, some may say just run the extra HDMI/component/etc cable, but this is for those 'I forgot' scenarios.
