  Works Perfectly September 6, 2008 The PS3 Component AV cable worked perfectly for my PS2 and my TV. My TV has Y/Pb/Pr and not Y, Cb/Pb, Cr/Pr inputs. Some forums expressed concern that the PS3 cable would not work for a PS2 with a TV that has only Y/Pb/Pr inputs. It worked perfectly on my TV.
  Poor Quality for Sony August 13, 2008 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
These cables look great in the packaging. But the stylish packaging hides a set of cheapo cables. They are marketed for PS3. You would do much better in buying Monster Cable's component cables designed for PS2 - the one without the Toslink cable. This assumes you don't want to pay the crazy current prices for the HDMI. (I bought one on Amazon for $1.98).
After returning these Sony cables, I bought the Monster Cable version for PS2 at Circuit City for $9.00. They were more originally. But PS2 stuff is being unloaded for cheaps now. And the Monster Cables are well-built, properly insulated, perform and connect well.
Decent RCA plugs can be screwed into the RCA jacks. Everyone's cables claims to have some voodoo magic in its winding. All I know is that line-level cables are capacitance and inductance. They should be free from interference from RF and intereferecne from each other.
I use both HDMI and component cables from my PS3, an alternate. I drive everything with a 2-channel tube amplifier. I think there are advantages of both, but that exceeds the scope of this review.
In sum, find the Monster Component cables for PS2 for your PS3.
  Quality counts August 12, 2008 Originally purchased a discount component cable (sorry, don't remember the brand) at Best Buy rather than pay the Sony premium, but it didn't work out of the box. I had to put pressure on the connector to get full color to come through. The Sony cable is more expensive (online at Amazon cuts out most of the premium) but the manufacturing quality is higher.
  A must to play PS2 on HDTV August 6, 2008 This cable enhances the graphics on PS2 games. I use a HDMI for PS3 so I only can give my opinion on Ps2 games.
  component cables July 3, 2008 This cable can also be used on DVD players with component hook-ups also to ease the pain.
