Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Monster PGL400 CVAA-10 Component Video with RCA Audio Cable Kit (10 feet)Customer Review: The BEST Cable for the PS-2 if you don't have digital audio Summary: 5 Stars
This is a wonderful cable for the PS-2. It is the highest quality "COMPONENT" cable (which is better than the low quality "Composite" cable and the medium quality "S-Video" cable). It has 3 split cables which are for video, and also has 2 cables for Analog Audio. (Note that these are obviously NOT five separate cables -they all connect pretty close to the end of the cable which means you can't plug the audio in 3 feet away from where you plug in the video. You have to plug all the cable ends in together in the same area.
The cables are very solid. They are thicker than you'd think, too, which allows for a better signal than you'd be getting out of the box with the default PS-2 composite cable that ships with the system, and by using the COMPONENT cables (rather than composite cables) you are getting a clearer and crisper picture.
You can't go wrong with this cable -it is the best VISUAL option available for the PS-2, BUT...
...if you DO want to go ALL the way also with the AUDIO option, then you may want to get a cable that supports "DIGITAL AUDIO". (Digital audio is the highest quality audio available -it goes over a fiber optic cable and has virtually no distortion.)
If you want simplicity --and digital audio-- (and money is not a concern) then I recommend the "Monster Cable PGL450CV/DV GameLink 450 Kit" [Product Number: B00006345E] instead of the above cable. This includes a PS-2 branded Monster Digital Audio Cable (instead of the 2 analog audio cable ends), and it also supplies a PS-2 Monster Component Video cable (3 video cable ends). This means you still have the 3 Component cables, but you have a completely separate digital audio cable which connects directly from the digital audio port on the playstation to your TV or your receiver.
On the other hand, if you want to save a little bit of money (and not sacrifice any quality) and you don't care about having a PS-2 "BRANDED" Monster DIGITAL AUDIO cable, then I recommend a separate (non PS-2) digital audio cable like the "Monster Cable THX-Certified Fiber Optic Digital Interconnect Cable (4 Feet)" [Product Number: B00006JKW5]. This is part of the "THX" (i.e. `George Lucas Audio') series Monster cables. They work wonderfully, and (in my opinion) are as high quality as the cable above. (Keep in mind, however, that if you purchase this digital audio cable then you need to buy a different Monster VIDEO cable. I mean, you don't need a video cable that comes with audio now, right? -you just bought an audio cable. You now only need to buy a (component) video cable (without audio) -and guess what, there's one available: Monster Cable GameLink 400 Component-Video Cable for PlayStation 2 (10 feet) [Product Number: B0000524PB]. This cable works great and is the same design as all the component video cables above.
Recap: ALL of the VIDEO cables that I've mentioned on this page are THE SAME QUALITY and are COMPONENT video cables. Only the audio options are different.
