    Component cables - UK-based suppliers?

    Who in the UK sells Component cables (ie for use with US and Japanese Cubes)?

    Preferably at a reasonable price too if at all possible.

    I suppose a digital cable would do, but I'd rather have a component cable that already has the R, G and B phono connectors (I'll be modifying it further and using phono to BNC adaptors to attach it to the BNC connectors on my VGA monitor you see).



    Thanks,
    Phil

    would it not be easier to buy the vga cable already done and then a female vga -> 5 bmc cable for a fiver from somewhere like www.pc500.net ???

    or can your monitor handle component ??

      True, but ready made VGA cables seem extortionately expensive for what they are, so I thought it would be far cheaper to buy a component cable and modify it myself.

      It's a standard PC VGA monitor (well, Iiyama Vision Master Pro 410) so I guess if I mod the cable accordingly as per the documented VGA mod it will be okay?


      Thanks,
      Phil
