So I'm starting to take my HT to the next level. I just bought a 42" Panasonic plasma TV, and right now I have it hooked up to my DVD player using and S-video cable. (The same cable I had used for my old 25" CRT TV.)
Now, my question is how much of a difference would I see if I bought a DVD player that upconverts and hooked that up to my plasma using an HDMI cable? The DVD player I have now doesn't have an HDMI output, but I could do is buy a set of component cables and hook the player to the plasma that way.
My DVD player isn't dead... just senile. (It locks up every once in awhile and will jump chapters if I try to fast forward sometimes, but it works.) But it does seem like I could get a new player that upconverts for around $100. So is it worth it to upgrade? Should I stick with what I have? Or maybe just buy a component cable? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
