Thanks Mdrew. I ended up buying the blujean series 1 HDMI cable, as it seemed the safest bet. I also bought a subwoofer cable from them. I probably paid more than I should have for that, but their site claimed their cable could help with hum, so again I just erred on the side of caution. I decided the additional cost wasn't enough to worry about for a bit of peace of mind. Everything else I bought from monoprice, including a mounting bracket for the T.V., wall plates, and banana plugs. Frankly, I didn't know that they sold the mounting plates (i.e., I thought I'd buy that from Best Buy). The money I saved on that alone pretty much paid for everything else (i.e., I am rationalizing potentially paying more than I should for some of the cables).
Again everyone, I really appreciate your responses. You all are a very nice and helpful group of people!
