Xbox S-Video Cables! Are they Better??
Who uses S-Video Cables?
Do they really improve quality picture over the cables that comes with the xbox?
I found this in ebay since xbox.com wouldn't show me the complete Advance AV Pack Cables.

Kar10, earlier today I made a comment to you on your thread about a RCA TV, and you had a link to it at BB. Did you see my post to you?
What happened to it? or am I loosing it?
I just picked up the Advanced pack for $3.99 (used @ EB) and it was a great improvement! Some graphics that had a little movement to em are now crystal clear.

Sharper and more detailed yes, I don't know about the color... maybe a little.
My TV has great color... you might want to check out the JVC I was telling you about before you make the purchase.?. Just a thought.
Good Luck

& if you can find the cables for $5.00 it's a no brainer.

I have to say it makes a huge difference. Especially if you have a widescreen HDTV set...the 720p mode on Tony Hawk 4...my god! and the 5.1 DD surround with the optical cable...geez.

I play on my 50" & 65" Toshiba but i've lowered the contrast and rotate games between games and video's. My first RPTV got burn-in from the "Station Bug" but that was becuase I was a newbie then and left it in "Torch" mode from the factory. Live and learn.
