I've had my KF-50WE610 for a few months now and with no problems other than a stuck on blue pixel (viewable from 3ft and closer). Here is a pic of my set on its temporary Target stand ($130). http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2002-...15/SonyLCD.jpg

There is always the consideration that your (or someone else) could see the dreaded rainbow effect/problem. My wife couldn't watch the 46" Samsung DLP (2nd Gen.) for more than 5 seconds before she had to look away. I wanted the 46" DLP for the native PC support but I prefer the PQ of the latest...

I catch the screen door effect when I'm about 4ft away but I sit 9-10ft on my couch. I have a stuck on blue pixel on my Sony 50" LCD but luckily I can't spot from about 5ft or so back even though I know where it is. I got a new 17" LCD monitor which also has a stuck blue pixel (lucky me) and...

I caught a glimpse of the 70" XBR and the only thing that woke me up from its trance was its $7000 price tag. Ouch! The XBR casing is a major improvement over the somewhat basic look of my 50WE610 and I was really envious of that front firewire input for DV camcorders. :)

Enjoy the Sony 34" XBR910. Smaller screen, dark corners, semi-flat, low resolution dot pitch (compared to LCD), and weighs 200lbs. I just spoke with the person I sold my XBR800 to and he wants to know if I can find him a buyer because he says its not all he thought it was cracked up to be...

SD is very watchable as long as you have a good feed. As with any TV garbage in equals garbage out. TVs this size (42" and up) display a lot more flaws in SD signals than a wee 13" CRT tube but luckily we've got HD and DVDs to really make us appreciate these super sized LCD RPTVs. My wife...

I ordered my 50" GWIII from OneCall which is where I order just about all of my gear. Their discounts, coupons, free shipping, and 2 year warranty for $89 were hard to pass up. Add in the lack of sales tax and that OneCall is one of VERY FEW factory authorized Internet sellers and it was a done...

Woo Hoo! What a set! I just finished my first movie on the 50 GWIII and other than the movie sucking (DareDevil) it was a real pleasure to watch. I have one stuck on pixel (blue) but you can't see it unless you're 5ft or closer to the screen. Can you disable the pixel or is it a lost...

I just dumped the KV-34XBR800 and I doubt I'll ever buy a CRT tube again. It wasn't totally flat, had dark corners, and the dot pitch was unacceptable. I just got the new Sony 50" GWIII installed tonight and not only does it weigh about 1/3 of the 34" XBR but the picture is oh much higher...

Is this first or second generation DLP on the RCA Scenium? I had a Samsung 2nd Gen. 46" DLP from Tweeter. I took the wife to go see it before it was delivered and she about tossed cookies from what she saw. Seemed fine to me and the salesman. I've heard that the HD-2+ DLP engine will...

WayneG, you mean the 50" GWIII?

My 50" Sony LCD arrives this Wednesday. I ordered from OneCall for $2844 delivered. Just call up and ask for 10% off, free shipping, and use the $125 Holiday Coupon (Holiday03). For $99 more I got the 2 year extended warranty. If you're a OneCall Pass Member you'll save an additional 1% on...

Nevermind on the Ikea stand. They wanted $160 shipping for a $99 stand! I went with the $129 TV stand at www.target.com Its about 1" shorter than the Hitachi 50V500.

My set has already had to be returned due to a dark spot in the bottom right corner of the screen. A few others over at the AVS forum have experienced the same thing. Hitachi has stated that this set should not be tilted over on its side for transport which is exactly what the guy at CC did...

Now that is a monitor! Can I have one for the PC please? Its good to see new LCD panels going higher than 720p. I just sold a Dell Inspiron 8500 laptop that had a 15.4" LCD that supported 1080p (1920x1200). Of course desktop icons required a magnifying glass!!

Nevermind, I just had Greenville CC pricematch their own price from the Orlando CC. No problems and my new set arrives on Friday. $2899 I found out today that the Hitachi lacks PC input like the Panasonic 50" LCD so that might make or break this set for some (not for me). Circuit City had...

I just purchased the Hitachi 50V500 today. They had it next to the Panasonic PT-50LC13 and even my wife instantly notice the superior picture on the Hitachi. The only downside of the Hitachi is that there is no PC input for computer graphics but since that is not something I'm interested in I...

LCD front or rear projection? I just got back from purchasing a Hitachi 50V500 LCD RPTV and I'd like to know to if its going to age poorly compared to DLP RPTVs.

Thats a great price on the Hitachi. I just got home from seeing it but I didn't like the $3200 price. What is the zip code of your store in case the store here in Greenville SC gives me grief?

David made a good point about a DLP based RPTV. That way you have 720p support for that quirky JVC consumer HD cam. I desperately wanted that cam to be the answer to my widescreen dilemma but other than higher resolution it doesn't offer much in control or color accuracy compared to today's...

Not exactly sure about your TV but most CRT based RPTVs can only display 480p natively with 720p being upconverted to 1080i. That gives you the 848x480 with 480p so its not your video card that is having a problem but more that your TV can't display 720p or 1280x720 progressive. Maybe...

I'm looking into the newly announced JVC/Victor consumer HD camcorder ($3500-/+) to use with my two HD sets (50HDX82 and 65H80) and I've been trying to figure out how this thing will directly output since it doesn't have a DVI connector or Component connections. I've since stumbled onto this...

Well my eyes hurt from staring at the same 2 minutes of Monsters Inc in both Progressive and Interlaced for the last hour or so. Yamaha DVD-C920 is nice in that it allows a single press of a remote button to toggle between progressive/interlaced. I'd flip back and forth a couple of times...

Click here for explanation of Faroudja DCDi

I've secured a Yamaha DVD-C920 (Prog. Scan w/ Faroudja DCDi) and I have my Yamah DVD-C900GL (Component 480i) to try this out on my new Toshiba 50HDX82 (upconvert 480i to 540p). I have yet to Avia/VE the new set but hopefully before this weekend I will have chance to compare the two and give...

Just got my Tosh 50HDX82 and it appears this set will upconvert 480i sources to 540p. My question is will I see a "major" difference by upgrading my Yamaha DVD-C900GL DVD player to something like the new Yamaha DVD-C920 with it's progressive scan and Faroudja DCDi processor? I'm using...
