Need good Component Video Cables


Just bought a Sony DVP-S9000ES player and a 55" Mitsubishi Diamond series HD-ready TV. I bought some monster cable just so I could hook it up out of the store, then I upgraded to a run of Transparent. The picture now has a slight overshadow (ghosting?) to it. I've tried rearranging cables and power cords, but to no avail. I know it is the component cable, because when I use the Monster cable the image has no shadow. $60 Monster cable bested $300 Transparent, go figure. Can someone recommend a good, shielded, component video cable--a 3 meter run--that is priced between $500 and $1000? Thanks.

Before you throw a lot of money at a solution, I suggest you contact BetterCables.com for a price quote. I bought a 1 meter set of component video cables from BetterCables, and am VERY impressed with the build quality and performance. The fellow who owns BetterCables hand-builds all cables to order, and his cables have gotten very good writeups by various reviewers. He also builds custom cables for professional use in TV and video studios. Take a look at the Web site for more info: www.bettercables.com
