I use normal 12-2 or 14-2 wire for speakers...I've never noticed a difference in anything else.
46 bucks for a meter pair of canare seems a bit steep for me. I could do it myself for less than half that.
Composite video you could use Belden 1695A/1694A and be set. Use three of those for component. You would then have to terminate them, I suggest Kings BNC connectors for termination and then convert that to an RCA with comprehensive BNC-RCA adaptors. All this is possible for a resonable price....give me an email.
Wow, the previous poster was within minutes of mine...LOL although the 1694a is an excellent choice for video, I think Canare has the better cable simply because of it's rejection of RFI interferance capabilities....the belden product mentioned is actually an RG-59 video cable.
