You can't find good component/S-Video cables for under $15-20, and in most cases of home theater equipment, the cheaper it is, the more it sucks. You can find more expensive items that are inferior to their less expensive counterparts, but these are exceptions. If you were to analyze the relationship between cost and quality in cables and home theater equipment, and graph it, you'd get a series of plots that would yield a best-fit line with a positive slope.
Inexpensive might not always equal crap, but it is usually inferior to the more expensive components. And decent, inexpensive cables might result in a picture that is crap compared to a more expensive hookup.
