Which one is better? I was just wondering which of the following is better to hook up from my DVD player to my tv.

Component is better. But depending on the size of your TV, you may not see the difference.

YOU THINK I WOULD NOTICE A DIFFERENCE ON A SONY KP61HS10 OR SONY KP65XBR10W?

THE DVD WOULD EITHER BE THROUGH THE SONY DVPS550 OR THE TOSHIBA SD6200. I AM NOT SURE YET.

THANKS.

component is significantly better, however, you must have good cable or it could be even worse. if you want to get technical it is because the basic three colors bleed with each other in an S video cable. in component they are totally seperated producing more natural colors
