Ok, I know that there's a PS2 High Def connector... I just don't know where to get it. My buddy's asking me to find it for him for his big screen, I just have no idea where to look. And ebay isn't showing me anything for highdef PS2, so...

Yeah, what cables do you use to connect to a HD TV to make the most of PS2? Also, where do you get them? k thx^

here's 2

They're easy to find. I don't think walmart stocks them, but best buy does, gamestop does, and compusa should.

It's pretty much just a componnent connection with the 3 video cables and 2 audio cables, instead of 1 video and 2 audio. Don't mistake the svideo one for these though, svideo does not support hdtv.

Composite aint that bad, but Component is better. S-video was barely an improvement.

Almost everybodies home stereo has supported optical audio for the last 10 years or so.

Almost nobodies tv does.


Thats why.
