Cables To Go - 29160 - 25ft Velocity S-Video Cable (Black)

Velocity S-Video Interconnects from Impact Acoustics offer vivid picture quality for today's video and home theater applications. These cost-effective performance cables give you maximum video quality compared to ordinary s-video cables. Low-loss dual 75ohm oxygen-free copper wire and foam dielectric provide optimized picture quality. Individually double-shielded wires combined with an overall aluminum foil and OFC braid shield protects against unwanted noise and interference. The dual coax design carries the Video (Y) signal separate from the Color (C) providing higher resolution and better picture quality. The color-coded molded connectors attach to an ultra flexible jacket allowing for easy installation and identification. The 24K gold plated heavy-duty connectors ensure long lasting, corrosion-free connections. S-Video Interconnects connect digital camcorders, satellite receivers, DVD players, PC with TV out or any video source with S-video output jacks to television, monitor or A/V receiver with S-video input jacks. In addition to fitting standard 4-pin S-Video jacks, the Velocity S-video cable fits most 7-pin jacks found on desktops and notebooks with a TV out jack.

I bought this product in Apr'2006. I am giving the review now only. I bought this to connect my computer / laptop to CRT TV. It worked so well for almost 2 yrs. Will recommend. Now I have LCD TV. So moved to DVI to HDMI.

I bought this cable when I thought that s-video would carry both audio and video. It doesn't. As with all S-video cables, this one only carries video. I was going to use it as a temporary across-the-room cable. I ended up using Cables To Go - 17916 - 25ft Value Series RCA-Type Audio Video Cable (Black) to temporarily run A/V across the living room. This 25' s-video cable replaced the long video line running to my TV. Sound takes another route. The cable is of perfectly good quality and I really like the price. I can't tell if the picture is better. A dust rag to the TV screen produces more tangible results.

I needed an S-video cable to output video from my Powerbook to my TV, and this cable certainly did the job. I had been using a shorter RCA plug and the difference in quality was noticable, as was to be expect. S-video provided a clearer, more rich image compared to the RCA cables I was using. This 4-pin cable is constructed well, and feels sturdy in one's hands. If you need to output video to a device 25 feet away, this cable works well. Just make sure that a 4-pin cable will fit into whatever device you're using.
