Heya guys. I usually hang out in the audio forums, so I'm kinda new regarding RPTV's. I want to get a 16:9 and I *think* I have it narrowed down. I want a 65". Mostly used for DVD and XBOX with a little cable TV thrown in. I really really don't want to spend more than $3500, but if it's worth it, I may. I have not gone to any store to check these out yet because the inconsistency in set-up that one finds at most places.
Toshiba 65HX81
Overall, people seem to like this one but I see lots of comments regarding ghosting and other problems. The question is, is that stuff a big enough deal?
Mits WS-65909
Everyone seems to say this one has a poor line doubler, and needs to be totally tweaked out because it's out-of-box performance is not as good as the Tosh and Pioneer. Good news is that there are tons of tweaks and what not at HTS.
Pioneer Elites and Non-Elites
I think the Elite 720 will be too expensive. Though they supposedly look the best out of the box. Also can't be tweaked like the mits can.
Does that sound right? It seems they all have some pros and cons...should I just flip a coin?
Any other suggestion are welcome too.
Thanks,
Sean
