    MarkerTek's house TecNec brand is made out of top notch Belden S-VIDEO cable, and nice connectors to boot. See link below.

    Hope this helps!

    Go for the THX S/Video Monster Cable (Ultra is best but standard is also good and cheaper)
    

    I have the component version and i was astounded by the diference in quality i got over other component cables i had.

    But search the 'net for the best price. I've seen 1 meter for $38.

  coax
  s-video
  componet

  Thats the order for best hookups. componet being the best at the moment.

  DVI is more about copy protection. AFAIK

  • Done correctly, DVI is better than analog component. - Joe Murphy Jr 10:07:54 10/26/03 (2)

    Like everything else, it depends on implementation by the source and the display.

    Case in point, the Samsung HD931 and Bravo D1 DVD players. Samsung misunderstood the specs (used computer DVI instead of video DVI) and thus got the implementation wrong. The Bravo D1 got it right.

    Done correctly , a DVI output gives you the capability to go from compressed digital YPbPr on a DVD (MPEG) to uncompressed digital RGB at the DVI output directly to the RGB processor input in the display without any analog processing, extra D/A - A/D conversions and associated cables in between.

      The DVI can be substantially better than even the component. I can switch between the two on the fly. The definition is much higher.
