Advanced Scart Cable review
Wow, it is truly great!

Before I was boughting thix, I did a lot of research!
There are many manufacters that brings out cables like;
Monstercable, Mad Catz, BOOM, interact, V Port, .....

I have to say, that Mad Catz bring nice stuff to, but not the set, that you see everywhere on the internet (Ultra AV Kit)

The ultra av kit is ONLY good if you have both COMPONENT outputs on you plasme/LCD/HDTV AND if you got a receiver, that can decode Dolby Digital

If you do NOT have component outputs on your tv, the microsoft advanced scart cable is THE solution to it, why?
You have RGB-signals, it works the same as the component technologie and you have a digital output(optical) on the cable to your receiver. IMPORTANT a receiver is NOT recoired, you'll have sound on your tv, don't worry

Now, if you do NOT have RGB-outputs on your tv, I think the best bang fot the buck is this cable from Mad Catz => Ultra S-Video/Audio Cable
With this cable you can choose; you can chose the s-video connector or the composite connector(yellow-color)
The cable is very good shieleded also and has(like the MS cable) two filters on it to reduce interference

You have another choice if s-video is the best output on your tv, than you can also go for monstercable, it exepensive, but this cable is solid as rock

Ok, the thing I can say, Don't you use the standard cables deliverd with your Xbox, there are better ones, that's fot sure!!

If you got RGB scart connectors on your tv(fully connected 21pins), than the Microsoft advanced scart cable is your choice!!
The cable is +/- 1,8 meters long (6 foot)
You can choose if you want the dolby digital output or the regular output, anyway, you don't have to worry, you'll have sound!!(analog or digital), it's also nice to say, the optical connector is protected against durt, it's a sort gate, that can open true a spring, I don't now precise how to discribe it, I can say that it is well build!!
The quality will improve dramaticly

If you do not have RGB on you tv, the best alternative is to get the Mad Catz cable: Ultra S-Video/Audio Cable

If you cannot get this cable, than you can also purchase the mostercable GameLink� 300 X S-Video A/V Cable
=> http://www.monstercable.com/europe/monstergame/xbox/

Ow yeah and don't believe the guys that say that: cables are not important

If you've done test, with different sort of cable, I mean the junk you'll get standard and the betters that you can buy, you will see that difference is HUGE!
It's always important, if you have a descent system, buy descent cables to!!!
- The system is as good as the weakest link -

Ok, I'm done
others are gone, butthe learners have reading this, so...spread the word around

THx

the cable is 'bomme' dutch :-

Good Lord, is this thing legal?
Not much to say here - except that if you own an X-Box, and don't have one of these, you're missing out. Compared to this, the standard 'composite' cables bundled with a retail console are hideous. Even worse is the RF Unit *shudders*. Anyway, the Advanced Pack has everything you need - superb upgrade in sound quality (even on my mono TV!), beautifully smooth and rounded text, richer textures, and fewer jaggies! You heard me - Buy It. Now.

perfect!!!
So, you have the best console in the world, now all you need is to bring it to life. By that i mean dolby 5.1. So this is what you need, it connects your xbox to an AV port via a scart lead. Then you have a black box with a digital audio port. Just connect an optical cable to that then connect the optical cable to a decoder/amplifier and your done. Its simple. The length is ideal and it matches your xbox console. Its good value too.
