Good idea. There's no point arguing with audiophile lunatics, especailly those who think that a RM900 1 meter power cord can perceivably influence a player's sound (notwithstanding that electricity is supplied with gimmick-free cabling from the nearest neighborhood TNB station kilometers away!).

Anyway, my take in this is that if a cheap cable works out for you, keep using it. The risk with buying a cheap cable is that you may have to buy a second cable if it turns out that it doesn't work (and thus spend more) or when your requirements increase. It has happened to me before when the 5m cable for hooking my DVI-D monitor to the computer in the closet didn't work past 800x600.
