A lot of people are reporting that the 622 has better quality from the component outputs anyway.
I've tried component and it seemed a little worse than HDMI. Maybe it's all in my head. But that's my opinion.

the component output on the hd-a2 only outputs to 480p. Only way to get hd out of the unit is hdmi. so if the hdmi ever goes bad you still have a good upconverting player.
