As my new TV came with component inputs I was scrambling to find a source of cables. Went to one store and saw a pretty nice pair of Monster Cables specifically designed for component input use, however it was WAY too expensive. Went to Radio Shack (yeah, I know - but I was looking at their high end version!) but they only had two 6' cables (of course I need three).

So, I ended up at another store and got three 6' video cables from AR (Acoustic Research) for two-thirds the cost of the Monster. I'm extremely pleased with them. Good shielding, flexible, fantastic platinum-colored metal ends with rubber grips and gold-plated contacts. The picture is great with slightly richer colors than on S-Video. Sharpness is about the same. For the heck of it I also tried the normal composite input and saw how fuzzy and distorted (shadows and other noise) it really is...
