Cables

As a professional installer i would say go with the less expensive if you have a regular TV, and/or a non HD cable box. but if your hooking up a $5000 LCD and are paying an extra $20-$30 a month for HD programming use the midgrade cable at the least, ...as for the yellow RCA its no different then the red or white...yellow denotes VIDEO when red/shiteare audio

If you are looking for a great deal on all types of cables, check out showmecables on the web. They are a really knowledgeable company, and they offer all types of cables at great prices.

Monoprice is so inexpensive, I don't mind paying a little more for their better quality stuff. But, Powerman makes a good point on the SD vs HD display.

With Monoprice's prices and quality, they have a lifelong customer in me. I just saved hundreds of $ wiring my theater and rec room by using monoprice's products.

Settle for nothing less then silver interconnects from www.kimber.com period.

Sorry for my ignorance, but exactly what hdmi cable from monoprice do I need to connect my Mits HDTV to the STB. Thanks!

I'd go with something the 24-gauge (24AWG) range from this page:

Get the shortest length you can - 6 feet (Part ID 2219) works for most if the STB is just above or below your TV.
