Okay... here it goes.
I had my Home Theater setup about 5 years ago and at the time, my main receiver does not have HDMI.
I had them ran a HDMI to DVI cable (50 feet) from the ceiling to the receiver. My projector is only 720P and was told HDMI, DVI & Componet should be same quality.
Fast forward, I had recently changed my receiver now with HDMI. I've been using an adapter changes from DVI back to HDMI to my receiver. I know it's probably not the best thing to do, but I don't have much choice unless I re-run HDMI cable.
here is the question... if i don't change my projector (stay with 720P), will I get better quality if I spend the money and re-run HDMI all the way?
how about component?
will I see any quality differences between HDMI->DVI->HDMI vs Component vs HDMI only.
I know if I ever upgrade my projector to 1080P, I would have to upgrade the cable to HDMI only. I'm just trying to use my current equipment until it stops working.
Thanks
Jeff
