Default Decent SCART lead?

Where's the best place to get a good SCART lead without paying the earth? My £1.99 ASDA lead is causing ghosting and pixellation on my nice new Samsung LE32R74BDX

The premium range at http://www.cableuniverse.co.uk/ are great for the price, but are you sure it's the lead? A poor quality lead would only have adverse affects if it was over about 3 metres long.

I hate to brag but placed my order through a supplier at work. We've spent £1m on hardware with them over the last 12 months so I got a cracking discount: £415 delivered

Oh and yes, it's a fantastic TV. It looks great in the living room and the picture quality through the component in is amazing. Being downloading as much 720p stuff as I can find. I can't stop watching the replay of me caning a RUF 911 round the Nordschleif (courtesy of the Xbox 360 of course) in HD

Just need to swap out this dodgy cable.

Richer Sounds?

The did a nice deal on my Cambridge Audio dvd, and have a good range of interconnects. Depends if there's one handy for you. If there is, check the web prices first, cos they're sometimes cheaper than the price displayed in the shop, but they will do the web price if you ask them to.
