99.9% of the time, connecting a video monitor to a high-quality audio system will degrade the quality of both the audio and the video.The reason is that all modern video display use switching power supplies. All video connections are single-ended. There is a leakage current from the switching power supply that will get on the chassis of the video display. Connecting the video display to (say) a DVD player (that is connected to your preamp) means that all the noise from the video display is now directly coupled into your audio system.
There are a few ways around it, but they are either expensive, tedious, or both. Search the archives for posts by me with search terms like "video" AND "ground" and you will get more info.
