I know everyone must get fed up with answering the numerous cabling questions which appear on the Forum but I guess it really reflects both the miriad of AV options around today (a good thing), the price of the cables (a bad thing) & the general ignorance of the author (an IQ thing). I also need some advice relating to a new DVD player. I intend to upgrade from standard Sky to Sky+ which will allow me to get rid of my now antiquated Philips DVD recorder (DVDR880) & get something with higher quality playback. My TV is a Toshiba 32C3030D & I have a Sony HT-SS1000 surround system. Do I go for a HD player such as the Toshiba HD-EP30 or HD-EP35 (now that prices are sensible, whether Blu-ray or HD wins the war is less relevant) or should I save a few bob & go for something like the Samsung HD870 or Toshiba SD-370E ? The driver for the question is really around my understanding that HD / Blu-ray adds little value to picture quality on smaller TVs
