What are you trying to watch?
HD content off TV/satellite is difficult to watch at the best of times...
Blurays really shine with the 8000.
The XD shouldn't be the issue, unless you're supper close to it.
I'd try a reset or have someone else take a look at it before upgrading.
I've had comments on the clarity even when I knew it could be /has been better.
XD and 8000 in use daily.
I ended up leaving mine on normal with the sharpness on +2, superwhite and iris off, bulb on low/Eco in a blacked out room.
