I own an older (6 years or so) Yamaha RX-V3000: RX-V3000
Being an older unit it does not have HDMI inputs or outputs. I am considering the purchase of a Samsung 46" LCD 1080p LN46A550 LCD TV - televisions SAMSUNG and a Panasonic DMP-BD30K both of which have HDMI as well as optical and component video.
I am very happy with the Yamaha RX-V300 and at this time I do not want to spend money on a new receiver just for the HDMI input/output. So the question is will I loose a lot of quality (video and sound) if I feed the RX-V3000 via an optical cable and component video versus HDMI? I would feed the Samsung 46" via component video.
Thanks.
