I recently purchased the system below...I realize that Optical sound and Component Video are the best for what I have, but DO THE CABLES REALLY MAKE A DIFFERENCE? DO I NEED TO UPGRADE OR WILL ANY DO? Any suggestions....?

I just recently bought a new home theater sound system. I wanted to go conservative, but still get good quality and sound.

I purchased all Harman/Kardon.
1. HK-AVR135
2. HK-DVD22
3. HK-HKTS8

In addition to these I have an xbox with Component and Optical Hookups, an RCA Scenium DVR and a Gamecube with Basic RCA Hook-ups. I am running everything through the Receiver to the TV through all 3 connections on the TV. I am looking to upgrade the wires. What are your suggestions?

Stay away from Monster. Good cables but way overpriced.

Do cables make a difference? Sometimes, depending on application and equipment. Should you upgrade? Same answer except you don't tell us what you now have.

Nope, not before my initial post. You specified type not name brand or other qualitatively identifiable information. Otherwise your third post is absolutely redundant. The only thing you said that comes close is "Basic RCA Hookups". Read you own post and avoid going off half-cocked.

Dale please stop acting like an idiot. I have read several other threads on here and all you do is act like everyone is stupid, and that they don't deserve your input unless they state their question in the format you desire. SO IF YOU ARE NOT GOING TO HELP, THEN PLEASE KEEP QUIET!

THANKS!

Don't blame me if the question is unclear. If you want a specific answer, ask a specific question. For all of you dunces, my first post answered his question. You're the kind of guys who would shoot the messenger. Who are the real idiots here?
