Customer Review: Best value for your money.
Summary: 4 Stars
At first I thought this cable was going to give me problems because it's was not gold platted, but I have to say that this cable works. It's meant to be used with any DVD Player that is Progressive Scan compatible that is hooked up to an HDTV. Don't use it as a scource for HD television because HDMI cables are better if you have a digital cable or satilite box with HDMI output. HDMI cables are getting cheaper if you buy on online. But the most important part about this was I got it for cheap. If you are looking to save money when hooking up your DVD player with 480p Progressive Scan to an HDTV. Buy this Component Video Cable, don't buy if you an HDMI output on it.Customer Review: Blue Screen!

I've just purchased these cables, guiding myself on the good reviews. I set up the dvd and tv and to my surprise the movie looks blue!, i feel like i'm watching the smurfs. If I try different combinations I get black and white, red and blue. I connected the cables correctly so I don't know if my cables are defective or whats the problem. And thanks for robinw who pointed out the problem:

I've experienced this problem before. It's actually caused by the DVD player, not the cable. By changing your DVD player's output into "Component output" (it's somewhere hidden in your DVD player's menu) should solve this problem
Customer Review: Does the job for a reasonable cost

I was considering purchasing a set that was twice the price but saw these for $10.92 sold by Amazon. Philips is a well known company so I decided to give them a try. The cables looked sufficiently sturdy and the connectors fit fine. They were not gold plated nor did they have the braided jacket like the others. After everything was hooked up, I played one of my DVD. The picture quality was very good. To be fair, I did not have a set of the more expensive cables to compare against but in the end, it does what its suppose to and the price made it a good purchase.Customer Review: As good as Monster, a fraction of the cost

I bought these from Amazon last fall to connect my DVD player to my new HD. I did not want to shell out the $100 for monster cables and figured I could only lose $8 getting these. They have worked out very well! I am very impressed with the signal quality. I compared my picture recently to a friends. While we both have rear project HD sets, we have different brands of TV and DVD. He has monster cables. I did not see any difference in the appearance compared to my setup.
Save yourself the money and get these. They work great!
Customer Review: Works Perfectly
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought 3 sets of these for my entertainment center. They work flawlessly. I laugh at people who purchase Monster Cables. These work just as good, and if you think you can tell a "difference" with Monster Cables, I challenge you to a double-blind test. You won't be able to tell any difference. My only complaint is that these cables are very thick, and hard to manuever in small quarters (i.e., through holes in the back of your entertainment center stand). If you are on a budget, these are the way to go.
