    Just got the new Philips 55PL9773 LCOS...

    DuWayne, Even though I asked you this same question on a PM, I thought it would be good to post here regarding your viewing experience with regular TV signals(cable or Direct TV). The pixel plus is supposed to make non-HD signals look like HD. What's your take? Next Q: What TV did the...

    Just got the new Philips 55PL9773 LCOS...

    DuWayne, I was passing by Good Guys today, and decided to stop in to take a closer look at the 55" Phillips LCOS TV. I checked to see if I could see any rainbow effects, but I did not see any. Of course, I admit I haven't looked at any DLP's yet, so I have yet to even know what rainbow...

    Just got the new Philips 55PL9773 LCOS...

    Anyone know if there's a big difference in picture quality in the single panel LCOS vs. the three panel LCOS? I haven't been able to find anything in writing on this. Also, its interesting to see that there's such a huge variation in pricing between the upcoming Toshinba & RCA LCOS's...

    Just got the new Philips 55PL9773 LCOS...

    DuWayne, My wife and I saw the Phillips TV last week at Good Guys and it was pretty awesome looking. The rep said it had only been on the floor a matter of hours, and that they had sold out of them. The picture was fantastic, so they must have done something right to set it up. I hadn't even...

    Sony KP-51WS500 or Toshiba 50H82?

    Todd I joined the Yahoo Sony group and yes, there's lots of info there. Sounds like the flickering issue is all too common, on the KP51 anyway,and I recently read that Sony just issued 6 new service bulletins on how to fix it!! Yikes. I have the KP46, and since it's not as popular as the...

    HELP! Convergence on Sony KP46WS500

    Thanks Rain. I guess it's not that I'm "not satisfied" with the flash focus, but rather just wondering if it's possible to do it manually and would that achieve better results? For the most part, the picture looks great and I don't have any complaints...other than the reflections off the screen...

    HELP! Convergence on Sony KP46WS500

    Total novice here in need a little assistance. I've had my KP46WT500 for about 2 weeks now. Since then, I've let the TV run for over 100 hours so it should be "warmed up", so to speak. I have it hooked up to a Hughes E86 HD DirectTV receiver via high quality component video cables. Right out...

    Sony KP-51WS500 or Toshiba 50H82?

    Todd, Can you elaborate on the flicker problem. I was watching the Browns game today on my KP46WS500 and noticed the orange jersey flickering on the Cleveland guys when they did a close up. The orange jersey was kinda pulsing, is the best way I could describe it. I think someone in the...

    Jack Briggs and others, About my Wega.

    Gregg, I guess I wasn't asking the right question. I'm wondering if the calibration can be "deleted" or lost by a loss of power or by changing the color/tint...etc on the TV. I'm a complete novice, so forgive my ignorance. Jay

    $1200 for Christmas. How are these big screens???

    Jeff, I just bought the Sony KP-46WT500 from onecall.com and I was extremely happy not only with the ease of purchase, but the delivery was included in the price, no sales tax, and it got here in less than a week...Christmas included. The TV ran me a bit more than you're looking to spend...

    Jack Briggs and others, About my Wega.

    Gregg, Once an ISF calibration is completed, will it stay that way forever? Is it possible to accidentally reset, or lose the "calibration" by moving the set to a different room, or from power loss, etc? Can the ISF calibration settings be saved into a memory? FWIW, I received my Sony...

    Please help! Sony vs. Panny widescreen choice

    Thanks Michael, I expect to get the TV delivered today. Just curious as to about how much it costs to have a professional calibrate the TV? I ordered the Avia disc, so how accurate of a calibration can one expect to get with Avia? How much better is a professional calibration? And lastly, I...

    Please help! Sony vs. Panny widescreen choice

    OK, new member here. I've been lurking but it's time to speak up. I recently bought the Sony KP46 because the wife and I really liked the tabletop idea, as opposed to going all the way to the floor. We're going to be building a media center with drawers below the TV area, so this type of TV...
