PS2: Sony Component Cables or Monster?

I have the Sony brand component cables and they give you a brighter and sharper picture than composite. I didn't buy the Monster brand since I've read that they don't give you much more for the extra money. I believe most people will just say, "Get the Sony", as they do their job and you save a few bucks. I'm a firm believer that you get what you pay for, but in this case the extra money doesn't give you a significant advantage over the Sony brand cables.

heh, i just got the $9.99 Madcatz ones. I havnt used them yet, but im guessing since the PS2 graphics arnt that great in the first place getting high quality cables isnt going to make a HUGE difference.

I have the Monster, but I got them at a great price. They're long. And they give me warm fuzzies. But that's about it.

The Sony cables will do just as well as the Monster cables, but I bought the Monster's because they are 10ft long which I needed to run from my receiver to the other side of my entertainment center. If I had not needed the extra length, I would have went with the Sony cables, I really hate buying anything Monster.

I have the monster ones going from a japanese ps2 with the sony ones from my domestic ps2. i can't tell the difference in picture quality, but maybe that's just me. i also got the early versions of the monster cables and they don't have analog audio cables which could be a pain. i'd save your money and get the sony ones if you can find them. i've had a hard time locating them in the past...

I actually prefer the older Monster cable without audio cables, that's what I use. I don't need the analog audio cables since I use a toslink cable for audio.

i have both and dont see any difference...i have two ps2's hooked up(through the pellican selector..not sure if that makes a difference then hooking them up directly to the tv).... most ps2 games dont even support progressive scan.....if you ask me s-video looks better for non progressive scan games....

I think the big thing that is going to be driving the sales of these is GT4.
