Can those who have experience w/ either, or even better both, give their impressions on each.
I just sold my Hitachi Ultravision 57s500 in preparation of moving into a new house. Anyone who has had the opportunity of viewing the newer CRT's will know I am a little spoiled. The colors are brilliant and the blacks amazing. I am a little hesitant about switching to a FP because I know I am going to be sacrificing some pq but I feel the larger more immersive picture will be worth the tradeoff.
A couple points about my new room. It is 10'6" x 22' x 10' (I'm not positive about the height as I forgot to measure it). It has a 4' window at the front and back that will be completely blocked off so light will be controlled. The room is going to be painted a flat black. The carpet is currently a beige color but will be swapped out for a darker color in the upcoming months.
I am looking at either a 92 or 106" screen depending on how much room I have up front once my towers are in place.
If anyone could give a good fixed screen recommendation for this setup I would appreciate it. I would like to keep the cost under 700.00 for the screen. I was leaning towards a Dalite matte white with a gain of around 1 but am not sure it that is the best route. All input is appreciated.
