Component cable quality question

Hen_Dawg · 8 Aug 2007 at 14:26

A friend of mine is just about to get hold of a Toshiba 32” CRT (yes CRT) and apparently it takes a component source, and is maybe also progressive scan. He’s already got a suitable Pioneer DVD player so it makes sense to use component.
With this sort of setup, how much point is there is getting a higher quality component cable? Will a standard cheap one do the job almost as well? Thanks

Component is analogue connection so lead quality does make a difference
I use these, no need to pay more, as doubt you will find better....

Nothing wrong with a Tosh 32" CRT.

If its a picture frame then he's got a good one :

I still beleive that this will beat any current LCD/Plasma on Freeview/Sky. Awesome televisions.

This one is not bad either :
