Tell them Jacob Bridges refered you.

They'll give you RBG cables.

I don't know. Whoever you ordered it from should be able to tell you, though, or at least give you the phone number of the installer (who would know).

Both receivers use HDMI. Not DVI outputs. And "NO" they don't provide them (much less know what they are). If your set only has DVI inputs you can either buy a "DVI to HDMI cable" or an "HDMI cable with and adapter for DVI".

I picked up a good HDMI to DVI cable from Monoprice for my Dish HD receiver.

i asked the guy on the phone... he said they would give them to me...

HDMI are the thin usb like ones right? and DVI is the bigger white block type plug? both of my tvs have the white block type ones.. so i would need HDMI to DVI?
