Greetings,
I haven't posted for a while, I'm currently serving with the Army in Al Asad, Iraq. My 14 month tour will be up soon.
I want to blow some of my hard earned Tax-Free earnings on a new set when I get home, but I've been out of the loop so long, I don't even know who the contenders are anymore.
In my current setup, I've got a Tosh TW40X81 Rear Projection TV, calibrated by Gregg. Signal is from DirecTivo, and I've got some cheep surround sound, and a Panny DVD player.
I'd like to get something bigger, but I don't know whether to go with a Flat Screen or an RPTV, or what? I'm so out of it, I don't know where to begin. My budget will be $3k to $5k, but less expensive is better. Would be nice if it is tweakable.
So, can anyone help me out? Which sets are the contenders in the tweakable, widescreen, HDTV, 50 inch, $3k - $5k range? Oh, and my TOSH has excellent "stretch" modes -- I'd want a replacment that handles the stretching of content equally as well.
Thanks,
David
