    Cables worked great. They were perfectly adjustable in case ports were far apart.

    Great cords! So excited to give them to my parents so they can connect their dvd player to the tv. They are thick and don't look easily breakable. Also they are the cheapest on the market I found, cheaper than Amazon. Not only are they the best price they are from a trustworthy company (Best buy) so you don't have to worry about getting cheap cords for a reseller. Over all I am very happy with my purchase, they are quality cords for a low price and look like they can't be destroyed by my family cat. Would recommend!

    I used these RCA cables to connect an HDMI-to-RCI signal converter to an older with only RCA ports and a coaxial cable jack. They are high-quality and provide clear video and audio with my HDMI antenna.

    These 6' Compose A/V Cables are FANTASTIC! Easy to use and very well built. Took them right out of the package and hooked them up. Even if you are not tech savvy (as I am not), these are easy to figure out and hook up to your devices. Cannot recommend them enough and cannot recommend Best Buy enough! Excellent and very helpful service and salesman!

    It’s a composite cable. You likely need this for older equipment on a TV where this is the only analog input it accepts. It works. No death grip. You can buy it in stores. What else is there to say?
