So it is, thanks.
I recall some videophile saying ~60 or above is optimal, but I could be misremembering. I'll read up on this again.

Well, I know I'm not "anyone else," but I just want to clarify my experience. I run my component video cables through a composite box to a 27" non-HDTV, and the picture looks (to me) the same as a direct component connection and considerably better than a direct S-video connection. I haven't tested component switchers, but I'd assume a direct connection is a fair baseline.Quote:

HDTV may be a different ballgame altogether.

Then where do you run your audio? Do you have a separate audio selector?

Yes. When I got a new TV, I used my old composite switchers for component video and audio respectively, and bought an S-video selector for the older consoles.Quote:

Ah, okay. Thought so. That won't be an option for me, then. I'm looking to condense my clutter a bit, and it'll be worth the extra money to have just one box.

Let us know what you find, because I'm considering picking up that JVC selector.

From that Crutchfield page:
This leads me to believe that bandwidth as an issue only in HDTV applications.Quote:
30MHz component pass-through bandwidth means that the JX-S111 can pass on HDTV-signals without picture degradation.
