I just bought an HDTV, but I don’t have an HD Receiver. The picture isn’t that great, and I read on another Yahoo! Answer why that is.

If I use an S-Video cable to connect the Receiver to the HDTV, will the image improve much, if any.

I am planning on getting an HD Receiver later, but I was just wondering if this was a quick fix for now.

      S-video is better than composite video (yellow) and much better than coax.
      You should get about the same quality you get from a DVD player.

      The unfortuante truth is sd will even be the picture in comparion to your tv the connection from your case though would be the tv it is true that gets displayed the qualithy of the larger the case with hdmi or compossite cables cheers.
      An svideo cable or sat box to composite cable in comparion to composite cable or sat box.
