i thought you guys had the internet, hdmi-hdmi cables should not be that much.. come on its just a cable and monster expensive high end cables do not make a diffrence at all. exept in the best buy employees comission check and "sugestive sales" ratings. on froogle i found the cables for 13 bucks.
the best buy employee doesn't make comission, and the shielding in the cables makes all the difference in the world. ever wonder why the radio shack cable is as thin as spagetti? because its a piece of ----. its like saying ssauto makes the same manifolds as full-race
i bet thats why usb cables corrupt so much data when you transfer information over them, oh and cat5 cables too . and sata cables (wich send more information, with more precision) than any sheilded homo overpriced monster cable. Even miles of coaxial cable... oh but time warner didint use monster so im sure your screwed there.. But yeah, the cables can cause interference with one another. Do they frequently? No, not realy. is any of the equipment that your using manufactured to the standard that the sheilded special gas yuppy boy homo cables are made to? NO!, Open atmosphere main board chips the pins that come off of the main board to the interface wich you plug the fancy cables into. And its not like full race to ssauto, its more like mugen valve cover to stock honda valve cover. or a set of slipstreams compared to some spoon wheels.

yes...i finally found an hdmi-dvi converter plug!!! my dvd came w/ the hdmi cable, but my tv doesn't have the hdmi input...only dvi. i'm happy w/ the component cables, but since the plug is only $30 i can make the switch to higher def from the dvd. there was no way i was going to spend over $100 for an hdmi-dvi cable when component was working well.

jebus! You DVD/Stereo is an all-in-one correct? then use the damn DVI cable because you are not going to need to output sound to the TV!

If I were you, I'd return the Stereo part and go seperates. much better quality.

and who said Klipsh owns? phph! :P ever heard HIGH END before? like.. Krell? Entry level front speakers are $18g.
