You are correct regarding the video. Howver, there is a difference in audio codec processing. Most higher end systems will only pass uncompressed PCM over HDMI now, thus it is your only option for high end audio.

I've referenced this site before, http://www.avsforum.com, but it is fairly equivelent to this site in the knowledge level. There are some folks who have waaay too much money and time on their hands.
