DUI,The hint you gave was the red&white for audio. That cable mix typically had a 50 Ohm red&white cable for audio and a 75 Ohm yellow cable for video.
So, right off the bat you had cable impedance mismatch with the red&white being used for video.
As Dman said, any old 75 Ohm video cable (even F connector coax with RCA adapters) would have worked. He is also right you could have bought 3 A/V (audio/video) cables from radio shack (pick your length) that would have worked just as well.
The critical point to remember about cables these days is that if you buy 75 Ohm cables with RCA connectors (typically labeled A/V) they will work for audio, composite video, component video, and digital audio.
The older audio only type RCA cables (50 Ohm) may cause problems. I'd avoid these altogether.
