Thanks Scott, Brent, for the comments. Hope to see a full review of the 4805 soon.

I demoed the Infocus X1 last week. It is rated at 1100 lumens and I found it quite dim with a little ambient light. The Infocus 4805 is coming out with only 750 lumens. I know a lot of HT enthusiasts prefer to watch movies in almost total darkness. Unfortunately, only those with dedicated...

I wonder why this is hot. Sony's VPL HS3 looks a lot better, and at a lower price.

I have a 50HX81 and a Pioneer DVD Progressive Scan. I tried the menu selectable switch of progressive and interlaced on the Pioneer. On DVD's, I notice a significant difference in the image. I get a superior image when I use the progressive option of the player. More vivid, no artifacts...

Forget about the Sony in RPTV's. Like you I had a hard time choosing between Toshiba (the 50HX81 not H) and the 533HD. Two things made me go for Toshiba. First, I was content with a 50". Pioneer had a 53" so the price was higher. My sister, audio/videophile and a Toshiba RPTV user, voted for the...

Thanks for this response, and for all the info I got from your website too!

Anyone Please, I wish to improve the video/audio of my old Laser Disc player, which I decided to include in my new HT set-up. Question: Can I change the manufacturer supplied cheapo RCA cables (red, white and yellow leads) with COAX cables with good quality terminals? Will these work and...

Thanks guys.:)

It's on a Toshiba 50HX81.

During a blue screen, as in waiting for a signal from the DVD player, a very faint grid outline against the blue background is visible when I go near the screen. The size of the grid squares is about 1", smaller than the convergence grid, and only randomly occupies about 30% of the screen...

I was told to put a source of light behind the TV to improve the image. The description came in terms of temperature (e.g. 6500 degress). In lay man's terms, what kind of light is this? Fluorescent? Incandescent?

To Gregg,Rick, John and Chris: Thank you all. I got the 50H81 from the keohi website. It is the same as the 50HX81. For starters, I did the 56-pt convergence, basically to correct minor flaws in geometry, especially the edges. To the naked eye, the geometry is almost perfect now. The...

Many thanks Gregg. That site is SUPER!

Anybody knows where to buy service manuals for Toshiba Rear Projection TV's? My model is TW50HX81.

I have a Toshiba 50HX81 and I paired it with a Pioneer DV737, which is Progressive Scan and Pure Cinema. At the stores I watched the Toshiba with a good DVD player NON- progressive scan. The very obvious advantage of the progressive scan Pioneer DV737 is that the images have absolutely no...

Hi. I am a newbie. I just got a Toshiba recently. 50HX81. I have not read your previous posts related to this topic and am wondering why contrast should be at 30%. A setting of 50% is wonderful.I use my Toshiba mostly for DVD's using a Pioneer DV737. ;)
