    Can anyone recommend a good quality scart lead. I was in Harvey Normans and they tried to sell me a brand called monster. It was 750 hdmi 1.5m scart to scart and it was 29E.

    Any good web sites to buy one.

    Aah, Monster, the remarkably overpriced cables!

    You should be able to get a fully-screened SCART cable for half that or less!

    Just consider when buying the SCART cable, to make sure that it's fully screened!

    Doesn't really matter what brand, IMO, as long as it's screened. Gold plating is also irrelevant IMO, unless the devices you're plugging into also has gold plated sockets.

    What do you mean by fully-screened.

    techlink do decent cables in various specs, their flat scarts are handy for easy fitting but are dearer, 13GBP on amazon for standard jobbies
