I've finally put enough money away that I can start building a good quality HT. I'm interested in purchasing a 16x9 TV to enjoy anamorphic DVDs on, but I've been told that if I watch a lot of SDTV, I'd be better off with a regular TV. Any thoughts?
Also, I saw a 16x9 set at a local store (didn't think of remembering the model, sorry )that was running Adam Sandler's "Big Daddy," but it looked... I don't know what word to use. It wasn't pixelated, but it looked "lumpy" (excuse my newbie lingo ) Is this normal for 16x9 TVs or was this a problem inherent to this specific model, or does the Big Daddy DVD simply suffer from a poor transfer? Another demo video I saw running (not sure if it was on the same TV or a different model) also featured lumpy video. It looked as if Photoshop's "watercolor" filter had been appplied to the image.
Anyway, I'd really appreciate any and all tips you guys have before I take the plunge
