The S500 has better components including the speakers and color guns that make the projection. I have the 46f00 and after comparing the 51f500 and 51s500 originally I didn't notice much difference at all in the picture qualities. The one thing that is noticeably different between the two is that...
Fortunately I am only running a 2 ft. cable so it's sounds as though the gauge will have no factor. Thanks for your help and thank you Kurt. I purchased a digital audio cable and a set of component cables from you guys the other day. Greg
Does anyone know what gauge the Monster Cable dvi400 is? I purchased a dvi from cables to go that seems pretty comparable but I'm not certain. I believe it's only 28 awg. Any ideas? Thanks, Greg
Bob: I have one other question. After checking out the cables from the links above I found a component set from Blue Jeans for $35. Is it realistic to think that these are just as good or do you think they are of lower quality? Thanks again. Greg
Excellent. Thanks for all the help. I already checked with Comcast and according to them, the DVI is functioning. I'll check out some of the custom cables.
That makes sense but I'm even more confused now that I have started to really get into it. I am going to hook up the dvi cable from my cable box to my television. Then I still need to run either component or s-video to my receiver correct?
I'm buying a Hitachi 46f500 in the next couple of days and I'm trying to figure out the best way to hook up my whole system to get the best picture and best sound from my home theater. Right now I have a surround sound system that is just hooked up with cheap rca cables that I want to replace so...
