one comes with the HD component cable i think..they're pretty cheap and works very well.

just get a cheap one from Argos mate, as it is a digital cable you will little to no difference going from a cheap one to a expensive one, unlike with analogue cables.

Sounds alright. What's the point of gold pins though? It's an optical cable!

If you want a longer then normal one look around for the belkin 3m, very cheap and well made they also have a nice thick cable so you dont feel like your gonna snap it when you bend it.

Off topic, but what is the deal with the seller having a score of 3472, when according to the 'Recent Ratings' panel, he has received 4769 positive in the last year, and no negative? :confused:

AdWright · 6 Jul 2006 at 11:29

Mine did, but it was part of the initial batch that also included the mini media remote
