I noticed a slight improvement using an AR s-video cable ($12 eBay) over the stock. Same thing with a new IEEE over my stock cable.
The point is, a small improvement here, a small improvement there...it all adds up.

I wind up using average cables, usually the ones that come with one device or another until they wear out from use, then buy a mid-priced cable, not the cheapest, but $30 for a "Monster"-type S Video cable is a ripoff.
S Video will give you better quality over composite any day, even with a cheap cable. -
