I'm getting new HT equipment and need new cables. Where is the best place (and what brand) to get cables (HDMI, component, digital audio) and speaker wires with the best bang for the buck mode in mind? Is it better to get them online or is it simpler (for the same price/quality) to go to Radio Shack and get them? Thanks.

The favorites around here are Radio Shack for a B&M store. Online I prefer Bluejeans cables, a lot of others here use Impact Acoustics (and you get a discount being a forum member).

I use Radio Shack Gold interconnects and their 14 guage speaker wire. At Best Buy and Curcuit City you can get AR stuff and at Home Depot they have 12 or 14 guage speaker wire. There are other places to get decent stuff as well that others will mention in this thread which will be fine too. The main point here is that there is no sonic advantage to spending more for high ticket cables and interconnects.
