Last week I received my cheapo component cable from china. It was put together very well, but picture quality was bad. So i decided to mod it. Many people converted this cable by using xbox 360 component cable. And I think, why to waste a good cable, there must be cheaper way. Then I think about, why not to use internet cable, cat5e or better, since they are good quality cables. And the results are very good: no interference, no checker boarding, no color bleeding.
Internet cable have 4 pairs, so i need to share ground wires. I decided to make 3 pairs for each video channel with separate ground and the last pair for left and right audio channels with shared ground to any video channel ground.
I think it's pretty good idea, since audio lovers make their audio cables out of internet cables. Problem is that pairs are not twisted at the same rate making some pairs longer. And it could make some video/audio anomalies, but it didn't, at least for my eyes.
What do you guys think about this?
