sunauto,

Thanks for all your input on the Sony 76H player. I'm very interested in this one.

1. I'm using a Sony 34" CRT TV, which does not have HDMI input. So is there any point in getting the 76H?

2. Of course I can still use component input. How's the component output of the 76H?

3. My TV can support HD resolutions (1080i/720p/625p/576p/525p/480p/480i capable) but can the 76H upsample to these via component output?

Thanks.

Thanks for the input. Yeah, it takes two to tango, so I don't understand why my TV is ready for 1080i/720p yet only has component input at best. As piscesguy said, not really practical this way. They should include HDMI or DVI input if they're really serious with high-def. Oh well...

gogo2, if you find a source for HD850 or Oppo let me know.
