...an RCA-branded digital component video cable set I picked up for about $16 at Wal Mart to my 46-inch Sony. There is a detailed diagram on the package that shows how these cables differ from standard shielded cable not designed for Component video. They have both a foil shield and a braided shield as well as gold plated connectors and a "pure copper signal conductor" LOL.The real question is not whether we need cables specifically designed for component video (we no doubt do), but rather whether any reputable brand of cables designed for component video will be ok and equal. What did you pay for your set at Circuit City? I would be interested if you could show that a $50 or $60 set of Component Video cables produces a clearer, sharper picture with fewer motion artifacts than the $16 RCA set I got at Wal Mart.
One reason people don't test these things is that its hard work to run the tests. I'm still fooling around with my $35 Cyberhome 300 vs $59 Toshiba 3950 DVD CD tests and havent come to any real conclusions on that yet either.
