In Reply to: Video cable = no improvement posted by Ed Sommer on September 23, 2002 at 10:01:55:
I replaced a cheapie S-video cable that came with my JVC S-VHS machine with a homebrewed cable built from Belden (#?) S-video cable and a set of gold plugs. But then again,I paid nowhere near $50. I'm viewing on a 27" HD-capable set. If I can buy a better wire by the foot, I'll be happy to give it a try.

The laws of physics don't apply to cables; this fact has been established long ago in the more audiophile asylum areas. The basics of capacitance, inductance and impedance seem to be manufacturer specific (to judge by their marketing hype). It's really refreshing to come to an asylum where the inmates dare to say what can't be said among audiophiles! "THE BEST CABLE IS NO CABLE" - there, I've said it, and it feels good, just don't report me to the Cable Asylum enthusiasts who are straining their ears to breaking point in search of non-existant differences. The comic truth is that a cheap cable, well made to observe the basic rules of physics, is the best.
I took your "THE BEST CABLE IS NO CABLE" advise and unplugged all my cables, now there is no sound, and none of the units power up. I also tried it on my hog farm where I removed all the wiring lining up the fences, and all the swines ran off. I don't think your advise is good.
Good one!
One of the funniest comebacks I've seen in a very long time!
about Mohammand Ali. He was on a plane and the flight attendant asked him to sit down and put on his seat belt. He told her that "Superman don't need no seatbelt!" Her reply was "Superman don't need no airplane!"
