Component Cables should be used only when an HDMI connection is not available. You made the question harder to answer by making your component cables higher quality sounding than you did the HDMI. Good cables are felt to be important and there are poor quality HDMI cable that cost more to ship than to purchase. There are even 3D quality HDMI cables now being sold. Actually most gaming will not require the technology that is required in a Blu Ray 3D disc connected to a top of the line 3D HDTV to watch a movie on your PlayStation 3

What kind of HDMI cable would you need for a Toshiba laptop and a vizio HDTV?

Any HDMI cable that has an HDMI logo will work. All HDMI products need to be tested and licensed by the HDMI organization. If a cable passes the test, it works. If HDMI cables work, they work as well as ANY other HDMI cable. The digital nature of the signal means that high cost cables do not deliver a better quality image than low cost cables. So, select the lowest cost cable in the store - it will be every bit as good as the most expensive.

Can you use two component cables as a audio cable?

The answer is YES & NO !1. Simply because there are 2 popular modes of the Component systemsProgressive vs. interlaced component video2. One will work and the other will create a distortion/interference since the signal is strong and that is why a 75 ohms coaxial is used.3. we had several incidents when we connected a DVD player to a TV, one time it was perfect, another we get a distorted, another we got a fuzzy black and white result, but the most severe case was when we burned out a satellite receiver (it happened at the same time we were connecting)Personally, I believe try it as a stand alone without any other device being connected to the TV.4. This should not be an issue with top brand peripherals
