I'm looking for some good component video cables but I'm on a budget. I've got a 32" Cinema Series Toshiba and I'm considering a fairly inexpensive Toshiba SD 1700 DVD. I want to maximize color and clarity. Any ideas?
Before you spend some bucks, first try this. I got really good results using good industry standard black Cable TV Coax cable and putting RCA adapters on the screw on plugs that go to your TV ($2 each from Radio Shack). This kind of cable is 75 Ohm and solid core. I've demo'd video cables up to $75 and none were better and many were worse. If you are like me and have left over cable TV coax cable your total investment is $4.
best i've seen, and now own, are tara psc video rgb. many will tell you, the brand of component cable makes no difference. don't believe em'. FWIW, i use a pioneer elite 37 dvd into a loewe aconda. -kelly
Get the Nordost S video cable. A bit expensive but if you upgrade to a better DVD unit or plasma TV(when they become affordable) you will not have to buy another cable. I have a Toshiba 35" Cinema Series and 6200 DVD and it works great. If I get a plasma unit, the cable is still one of the best available at any price.
