Changed my mind about component cables for PS2 after seeing a comparison.

I always thought composite was fine for PS2 games, but a guy at a local retro meetup in Austin showed me his setup with Monster component cables on Gran Turismo 4. The difference in clarity on the car details and track textures was night and day, even on my old 720p LCD. Now I'm hunting for a cheap set on eBay, anyone got a lead on a brand that works well without costing $50?

Honestly I've been down that road and went back to composite on my CRT. Yeah component is sharper but it makes the jaggies way more obvious on PS2 games that weren't built for it. Seems like you're just trading one problem for another.
