RGB vs S-vhs

This may come down to personal preference but hey..

I have a sony Dav300 which i play on my Panasonic tv ... I currently use s-video lead to conect whilst using audio through sony system. Would an RGB connection give a better picture quality than s-video.

Thanks

Short answer: It depends. Try both and stick with whichever looks best to you.

Long answer: Component Vs RGB (Scart?) Vs Svideo Vs Composite
