What cable for component video

Peter Scott · 2007-09-07T20:12:45+00:00

I am installing a ceiling mounted video projector. I want to use component video with the cables concealed in oval conduit in the plaster. This means I can't use ready made cables. When I looked in CPC and Studiospares the price for the cable made my jaw drop. Does anyone know what an acceptable cable would be for a 15 metre run between soldered or screw joints on faceplates, and where I might get it? The ones I've seen are 5 core with individual screens and cost 5 pounds a metre upwards! Does each core really have to be screened? I suppose I could buy ready-mades and cut off the connectors, but I would prefer to buy a good spec cable.I have tried to find a ng which specialises in audio-visual but all the various combinations of the relevant words don't find anything. Anyone know of a suitable group?If anyone's thinking of buying a projector I bought an Epson TW20, which is a good price from eBuyer. I've got it to a 2.4 metre wide image from DVD and its still bright and not pixellish when viewed from about 6 m. And that's just on an emulsioned wall. Screen is yet to arrive.
