You will need:
•one coaxial cable
•three pairs of audio cables (one pair and two single audio cables for a mono VCR)
•two regular video cables
•one set of ColorStream (component) video cables
Note:
For the best picture performance, use ColorStream® (component video) cables between the TV and DVD player (see “Note Regarding Picture Quality” on page 7).
