Excellent Component Direct or

Thanks for reading and the insight.

Here is my dilema. I have a McIntosh MVP-841 and Faroudja DV-1000 DVD players. I want to use just ONE and am trying to determine the best route for HT, as 2 channel it is clear.

I use a DVDO (original version) which I take the "S" video out of the McIntosh and run it into the DVDO, then the PROGRESSIVE scan from this to the RPTV. Question is:

Am I better off staying with this route or is the Faroudja component so superior to other, I would better the quality by taking it directly to the TV in a non progrssive scan mode?

Suggestions/Ideas?
