Component Cables as audio interconnects?

[docferdie]

<font color='#000000'>does this make sense from a physics standpoint? I have had experience with cheap (7$) but well built (thick) component cables that give me an excellent picture on my DLP TV. Will these work as well when used as audio interconnects for SACD/DVD-Audio? Don't want the hassle of fiddling around the back of my gear if video cables are constructed differently. I am currently using 2 foot rat-shack golds-they sound good but one end uses 90 degree connectors and they block off some things on my amplifier. I haven't found anything that is as good a bargain as these cables so I'm looking into video cables.</font>

<font color='#000000'>I have tried audio/video cables for both applications and saw no difference whatsoever. &nbsp;That is, I have tried audio cables as component cables and vice versa with results being virtually the same. &nbsp;One cable is supposed to be 50 ohms and the other 75 ohms. &nbsp;Apparently in my system it makes no discernable difference.

I used 3 audio cables as component video cables just as a test (curiosity). &nbsp;The HDTV I connected them to was a Hitachi 65S700. &nbsp;The results were excellent.</font>
