HDMI Audio Quality vs Optical/Digital/Analogue


Have any of you done experiments comparing audio qualit, via HDMI to alternatives - optical, digital, or analogue? I'm wondering if HDMI audio is necessarily equal or better, or, does it depend on other factors (or inferior?).
Thanks,

If your preamp or receiver do the new codecs (DTS HD, Dolby TrueHD) and you have HD DVD or Blu-ray it is a huge step up, akin to MP3 vs. CD.
