You need to add Foresight mk2 s-video cable from www.thecablepro.com as one of the best and only $69.00 for a 3 ft. cable, its the best I have ever seen, better than my friends Nordost Optix s-video and my Tributaries silver s-video cables. This is a "real sleeper"..........Rpatrick
I've used Monster Video 3 (in the 90's was their top of the line), Tributaries premium Silver, and Nordost Optix Super S-Video.
I believe Nordost Optix Super S (MSRP $250) is the best and if you do research you will find only rave reviews regarding it. Ive never tested Transparent's Premium (MSRP $300+??)but I heard its a reference cable as well.
The Tributaries Silver is the best for the dollar and is excellent and has basically the same construction as the other premium cables.
I have the Nordost hooked up to my Pioneer Elite CLD-97 laserdisc player.
Widescreen Review uses these 3 S-Video cables in their 4 reference systems: Monster's 2000 S-Video(top of the line), Nordost Optix Super S, and Transparent Premium on their laserdisc players: McIntosh 7020, Pioneer Elite CLD-97, Pioneer Elite CLD-99, and Runco LJR II. Hope this helps.
They will be a review on Ted Paisley's cables www.thecablepro.com, in the near future in the Absolute Sound magazine..........Richard
