What's a good component cable for DVD?
« on: May 05, 2006, 02:01:49 PM »
I need to get a component cable for my new home theater. There is no way I'm paying the $100 that Monster Cable wants though. What is a good and cheap component cable that will look good but not break my bank?

Just use what came with it, otherwise just grab acoustic research or rat shack.  It is a sub $100 player correct.

Yep. I don't believe a component cable is coming with the player though.

Look on ebay, and score some monster cable off there

Ive gotten thx approved s-video and optical cables off there for 10 bucks, new

Cables are retail stores bread and butter, and the markup is ridiculous

He has some other nice cables for very reasonable prices as well.  He's using quality materials, different lengths, at a good price.

Canare LV-61S cable and Canare connectors.
Maybe a couple of small scratches, but thats because these mics are chick magnets.
Girls always up on Andy tryin to grab these mics, the scratches are from their wedding rings.
