Joe Sixpack is jumping on the HDTV bandwagon and it's low hanging fruit.

Besides, do you think that his markewting of other products follows a different ethical staandard?

I just meant that I don't think one can necessarily extrapolate these findings to include speaker cable and analog interconnects, that's all. The piece didn't try to make a blanket statement about all cables--I'm not saying it did, but it is possible some might be left with that impression. I also would have like to seen the test done with a side-by-side comparison of TV's instead of having to move from one side of the room to the other. (It may have made no difference, but I would liked to have seen it.) I don't at the moment own any equipment with HDMI connections, so I have no experience in this area.

  I can.
  
  There is a difference I can see between video component cables and composite video but I haven't seen a difference between different brands of component cables or between brands of composite, etc.
  - That's good to know I went cheap and got the Philips Component Video Cables at WalMart for $17.96 - Teresa 18:11:06 12/26/08 (0)
    And I get a beautiful film like picture which so much better than the "S" connection on my previous TV.
    
    Happy listening,
