Not claiming to be an expert, but . . .

In theory, there should be no difference using either HDMI out or Component out . . .
Actually, "in theory" if anything, the HDMI ought to be better since with component two additional steps of signal processing are introduced; first a DtoA to get the analog component signal, then a AtoD to get the signal back to digital so the TV can deal with it.
In practice this does not seem to be the case and most people report no difference.

It is most likely that your perceived difference in picture quality is simply the calibration difference between the HDMI input on the TV and the Component input on the TV.
Calibrate both inputs and it is likely that you will see no difference.
