Hi, I am looking at purchasing a Blue Ray player, my question is this Denon receiver doesn't have an HDMI connection, if I use this unit without the HDMI connection from the player will I see a dramatic improvement in pic quality or not?
I basically answered the way I did since the question was regarding the quality of the connection to the Denon which has component video and not HDMI. I was assuming that the confusion was about HDMI being unmatched in quality. That and Rod never mentioned if his TV had HDMI.
I did'nt mean to challenge your answer Jim. Now that I have reread the question I am more confused by it."if I use this unit without the HDMI connection from the player will I see a dramatic improvement in pic quality or not? HDMI is not the final answer for the best picture, but most people assume the picture is better with HDMI over Component.
Very true!! Exactly what I was attempting to point out. I always cringe when the Best Buy commercial states that HDMI is the "best available". Technically true but misleading and many get the impression that there is no other way to go.
