Back in the day (Sheesh...did I really just use that expression???) Mitsu CRTs used to be very highly regarded. I'm sure someone knowledgable will jump in here shortly.

I have been in the HDTV market since last April. I finally purchased a Sony SXRD about a month ago.

The BEST advice that I can give you is GO LOOK AT ONE before you buy it.

Take a LONG, HARD look!!!!

Then compare it to the others in the store.

I totally agree with the Rat on this one. It is just like speakers and auditioning if possible. Everyone has differing opinions on what they hear, just as what they visually see. My folks had intended to recently purchasing a DLP set, but ended up with a Hitachi Plasma instead based on picture performance.

Rat - I always thought you were a DLP guy - looking at the 61" 1080p DLP sets. Am I mistaken? If not, why the change?

I've always found the LCD sets to be a little "screen-doory" for my taste (assuming the SXRD is an LCD, right?). I am also fairly sensitive to pixelation, which is why I prefer the "wobulated" DLPs over the non-wobulated versions. Still, I find the Plasma picture to be the best of the newer technologies (it is the most tube-like, in my opinion, and based on my observations, the least susceptible to some of the digital looking aritcfacts found on DLP and LCD sets).

Of the DLP's I've seen, I liked the Mits models best.

ok,i went down to look at the tvs and they look great with a hd signal,but regular programs look horrible on all the sets i looked at all the way up to 5000 dollars
i need a 60 inch or larger because im about 18 feet away from it
some of the smaller sets looked good,but im just going to have to wait until the majority of channels go hd....thanks

Capn: I came within a "frog hair" of buying a Samsung DLP. I studied all the material I could find, looked at the AVS board comments, and (when they were available) went and looked at one a couple of times. I didn't see rainbows or anything like that, but I did see "clay" faces. And, I was bothered by the lip sync/ video delay and manufacturing issues.

The Sony has a three chip LCOS light engine. I have seen the Sony beside a Sammy and a Mits. It blows them away(of course in my humble opinion)! We were watching the Rockafeller Christmas TV Special in HD this evening. All I can say is WOW, what a picture. The wife was likewise impressed!!!

Glad you like it! I like Sony TVs. Great tuner in my 36 crt. Pulls in channels clearer than any other TV I have.
