A good PS3 component cable - Blu-ray Forum

saprano · 08-01-2011, 05:29 PM

Anyone have any recommendations on the best one to get?

I want one so i don't have to keep unplugging the HDMI cable to put it into the receiver when i want to watch a movie. This way i can use the component for playing games and just leave the HDMI connected to the receiver and switch inputs.

Use the official Sony PS3 one... Also the same as the PS2 one.

Yeah I think it should be like $19.99, maybe $24.99

saprano, I don't understand the logic of using both an HDMI and Component cable...could you shed some light on your setup and your goal?

This is the part that is confusing...

I've used this one from Monoprice and have no complaints. At $4 plus a couple of bucks for shipping, it's likely significantly cheaper than you'll find the Sony-branded cable for.
