Not at all. They're surprisingly alright for the money. Oxygen free, gold plated contacts. I don't see the point of buying a £100 dvd player, and then spending nearly the same again on leads.

You can always take them back if you think they're not up to much.

The Hitachi ones from Argos at £7.99 were pretty good. Only reason I am not keeping them is bcos I have just got some Cambridge Audio £79 ones from Richer Sounds (I didnt pay £79 tho!!)
