you should check how each component needs for tv and to stereo receiver. hdmi now will send sound to tv so you can eliminate red, white and yellow cables. DVD should have hdmi, component, supervhs, or video connection. listed in order of best reception. Most of your "stuff" should still go through your stereo if you have it. For best advise, get a neighbor that's smart to check it out. That's what my neighbors do. No neighbors,be more specific in your equipment for best advice.

You will need an HDMI cable if you want to hook it up to your TV that way, which is the simplest method. It comes with standard cables, but again, messy wires and hassle. Amazon sells great generic HDMI cables at a very inexpensive price.

You need the latest spec HDMI cable. The old standard did not provide this feature.

Mine came with 1 HDMI cable, however, I'm not sure that's standard. To be sure maybe pick up one extra. You can find a decent one for about $10.

I don't know about needing more or different ones. I have an older TV so I just used the cables that were sent with it. Sorry, I couldn't be more help.

I agree with the other answers - just would like to add there are also difference in which HDMI cable you'll need too. And that will depend on the age and type/brand of television you have due to the hook up types that was provided by the manufacturer of your television. Good luck.

I think just a regular HDMI cable would work for that. I'm not entirely positive though, so check me on that.

Nope, not necessary. You will probably want a 1.3 spec Cat 2 cable. That will set you back about $5 plus shipping. The cable people are at monoprice.com. Most HDMI cables are 6 feet. If that works for you this is what you should buy... http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=102&cp_id=10240&cs_id=1024008&p_id=3992&seq=1&format=2.

any cheap HDMI cable offered from Amazon will do. I bought this TV in early October (from Amazon) and also purchased 2 - $5 dollar cables (also from Amazon). You do NOT need the fancy HDMI cables that cost $100+. For a little reference, advice, see this site, (CNET). http://reviews.cnet.com/hdmi-guide/?tag=pm(i don't work for Cnet or Amazon or any of the vendors, i was in the exact same position as you, and made the mistake once of buying expensive cables. never again, there is no difference in the picture, and my bluray is connected to this tv via a $5 HDMI cable thats 12 feet long.

No HDMI needed. Just use composite(red,white,yellow)good quality or component (red,green, blue plus red,white audio ) better video quality, hookup.

I believe what you need is an HDMI Cable and you can use it only if your computer has an HDMI port.

Amazon has a great variety of 50' hdmi cables and I would contact Orei to find out which to buy. Usually a more expensive cable is better.
