You might be better posting in the display section where it is more likely that you will find someone with your combination of devices.

The short answer is let your eyes decide.

He hit it right on the head. YOur best bet is to do your own A/B comparison and see which one looks better.

thanx

I'm not sure how good your television is at deinterlacing, but my Pioneer's DCDI is not in the same ballpark as a dedicated VP or Oppo 983 in quality. The other issue I believe is that it will not upconvert HDMI signals (which I assume you are using with the PS3) although I only did a bit of experimentation when I bought the receiver. I would imagine it would be easier to have your display do all the converting if the PQ looks the same.
