Hi,

One thing I *do* know is (for those who still think quality of interconnects
is unimportant) that an 'iffy' Scart lead is its own pain and will lead one
into the very depths of misery and despair......


Ain't that the truth :-)

Poor scart cables cause all sorts of problems. Many of them are not even
wired for RGB. On the other hand, though, I've found you don't need to
spend a fortune for good ones. CPC (http://custom1.farnell.com/cpc) sell
decent ones for around a fiver, with individually shielded coax cores in
the important places. Unfortunately, I've been hearing nasty stories
about their (in)abilities as a vendor offering good customer
satisfaction lately - too many incorrect/late orders. When it comes to
cables, audio and video are very different animals.
