2408 cable box connectoin and calibration

Does anyone have any recommendations as to what would be the best connection device to use for a cable box hookup (ie component cables or HDMI).  I've read on a review that the HDMI hookup with crop and distort the picture, I'm not knowledable enough on all this stuff to understand why though.  Also does anyone have any recommendations as to what the best calibration settings would be for a cable box and/or dvd hookup?  Thanks!

    I hooked mine up HDMI to the cable box and didn't notice any cropping at all but maybe it was something I didn't notice.

    I just got my info from this website:  http://monitortest.blogspot.com/, which is admittedly way over my head.  But if you scroll down quite a bit to where it says "Digital Inputs", it talks about the distortion/cropping problem using an HDMI.  Honestly I'm not sure if I'm even reading that correctly, but I figured I would try to find out.  If anyone has any input please let me know, thanks!
