We are in the market for a 50"-60" RPTV. Most of what we watch is cable tv broadcasts, non digital. About 2-4 times a week we will watch DVD and/or VHS movies.
We auditioned some HDTV's from Pioneer, really nice ones, and Mitsubishi. When viewing a high def program, or even a DVD, the picture on these sets was outstanding. However, when viewing a regular cable or local broadcast program, which is what we watch most of the time, the picture was awful, very grainy. The same cable pictures on non-HDTV sets was much less grainy.
Are we really seeing what we're seeing? Are the high def sets only good when viewing digital images? If so, any recommendations for non-high def RPTV's, $3,000 or less?
Thanks,
Ron
