Source for good qualiy cables.

I am looking for any suggestions on where I can buy good quality cables (I dont mind paying a bit as I know the difference they can make) to connect projector to pc/hifi. The cable types are as follows:

1) DVI to DVI
2) VGA to VGA
3) Component (Phono) to Scart
4) Component (Phono) to BNC
5) Component (BNC) to VGA
5) S-Video
6) Composite

Regards

They will make up any cable you want at about half the price you will pay anywhere else and its really good quality (Van Damme)! Highly recommended. Email them with your needs (if you can't see it in their catalogue) and they will get back to you in a day or so.

Excellent service! Well known by the folks in the CRT forum.
Regards,

Paul

The Van Damme cables look and I presume are Ixos 110 cables too. Without doubt they are from the same far east factory. This is not a criticism, just that most folk will have heard of Ixos but not Van Damme. I think they are cheaper than Ixos for same sort of quality

If you require higher quality I know this guy in Scotland...

Got my cables from the media factory . Excellent quality and great prices. Nice people to do business with and they are in Glasgow.

Update: checking their site looks like they've just moved to Motherwell area.
