    best place to buy cables online?

    So, I was in Best Buy last night and took a look through their cable section. Pretty sad. It looks like all they sell now is Monster Cable and Acoustic Research, both of which are incredibly over priced. Same for Radio Shack which I visited last week.

    Is there a place online (or even a B&M store in the San Francisco Bay Area) that sells decent cables for reasonable prices? I just need a long (~20ft) subwoofer cable and a couple of component video cables.
