I'm more of an audio guy trying to make a decision about my first HDTV. I'm pretty sold on Mits (unless someone suggests otherwise), but need advice on new 311/411/511 lines. Probably going 55"; is the 411 worth the $200 over the 311 (I have prices of $2600 vs $2400). My understanding is that it's the same lens, but with a different focus system? Or, is the 511 (with the "next" level lens) worth $600 more than the 411?
Or should I maybe look to make a deal on the last generation going out? I haven't found one yet, but I have seen the 55809 well-reviewed here. And the same dealer with the sets above offered a 55859 at $3000, which I understand is last gens' 511.
I know the ultimate deciding factor is a side-by-side comparison, but I haven't found a dealer in my area that has the 311/411/511 all on display in the same size. So I'm relying on some expert advice here to help point the way.
P.S. Now I'm wondering how the Pioneer SD-533HD5 compares in all this.
Thanks,
