    Hi,
    I have a HD Cable Box if I hook it up via Component Cables instead
    of HDMI to a Sony Wega KDF-E60A20 will I still be able to receive Hd
    content, or will it just be 480p, not 720p, or 1080i?

    Thanks for all the help guys...

    Component is like an HDMI without audio as far as pq is concerned. Lotsa people will agree that component has a better pq than HDMI. More color saturation IMO.

    Unfortunately in some cases HD is crippled with component, due to it's analog (read copyable) nature.
