    First HDTV, picture seems grainy. Is this how they are?

    Hello again. Had my Toshiba 50H82 HDTV delivered last week and hooked up my Cable for TV. I have digital cable subscription and have an S-Video cable running from the digital box (from the cable company) to my new TV. I had assumed that the picture with digital cable on a HDTV set would not...

    TV delivered.... now what?

    If you followed my last thread, I did decide to downgrade from a Tosh 57H82 to a 50H82 just because of my space issue. Now to my next question... I have my new TV here, what is my next steps. I have read that there is a DVD program you can buy to calibrate your set at home (forgot the name...

    57 is too big! now what :(

    Sadly with how the room is set up I cannot change it around. I am going to give it about a week and see. The sad thing is that I talked the guy at Best Buy down to selling me the set for $1900 instead of the $2199 that it was priced at. If I did return it for the 50 inch Tosh (same model 50H82)...

    57 is too big! now what :(

    Thanks again for all the responses! To answer a few questions from above, the picture is not bad at all. And if it is distance to my actual eye, it is closer to 7 feet I guess. The very front of my couch is about 5.5 feet from the TV screen. But like I said, it is not the picture...

    Then I guess my next question is how far away from your TV do you sit? Like I said above I have a 57inch now and the couch is about 5 feet away from it right now. It just seems to be too close. I bought it at best buy, so I have 30 days to return it I believe. I will give it a few days and...

    57 is too big! now what :(

    Just had my 57 inch HDTV (Toshiba 57H82)delivered today and though it looked perfect in the store, and I thought I measured correctly but it just seems to big for my living room. The picture itself does not seem too big, but just to close if you can understand what I mean. My living room is...

    Toshiba 57H82.... should I buy it? (first time HDTV buyer)

    Thanks for the reply Jeff. As to some of your questions I am getting digital cable hooked up, and will be mainly watching tv programs and DVD's. Also I will put the set up in my living room where the viewing distance will never be less than 5 feet (if I ever moved my couch that close) but mainly...

    Toshiba 57H82.... should I buy it? (first time HDTV buyer)

    I am looking to by a HDTV (or a HDready TV rather), and after looking up info on the net, and visiting local electronic dealers the one I am leaning toward is the Toshiba 57H82. But information is hard to come by, and I luckily ran into this site. This is my first experience with HDTV's and...
